Sears' Hunt Valley store, the lone remnant of the former Hunt Valley Mall, opened on September 17, 1981 with the mall. In 2000, after suffering competition from other malls nearby, the Hunt Valley Mall admitted defeat and was, except for the anchors, demolished. In 2003, a new outdoor shopping mall, the Hunt Valley Towne Center, was built, adding on to the Sears and former Macy's buildings. Sears Holdings announced the Cockeysville store's closure on June 22, 2017, and it closed in September. On October 21, 2018, HomeGoods opened a new store in about half of the bottom level of the former Sears, and was followed in March 2019 by a Michaels store, right next door. In December 2020, Ashley Furniture opened a HomeStore in a large part of the second level of the former Sears. In February 2021, it was announced that a fourth and final replacement store, OneLife Fitness, would be built off the remaining space in the upper floor.
