DEAD MALLS

Owings Mills, Maryland - December 21, 2014: Three shoppers walk past closed stores at the Owings Mills Mall the Sunday before Christmas.

The dying Owings Mills Mall offers 1,080,000 sq ft of total retail floor area, but the majority of stores in the mall are vacant. Only 26 stores and two anchors -- JCPenney and Macy's -- remain. The mall's expansive parking lots are sparse, even though it's the Sunday before Christmas. CREDIT: Matt Roth for The New York Times
