The mall was originally developed by Bernard Manekin who converted the 1921 Maryland Casualty Insurance Co. building, designed by Otto Simonson, into a shopping center in 1971.[1][2] The historic building's centerpiece is a bell tower which chimes the Westminster Quarters. It was renovated in 2002,[3] and again in 2014 by Hekemian & Co. The mall was bought by Hekemian & Co., Inc. in the early 2000s. Hekemian & Co has since completed its $100 million redevelopment of the site, which includes the 379 unit ICON residences at The Rotunda, shops and restaurants, and a Mom's Organic Market.[4]
The Rotunda was the home to a cinema, "The Rotunda Cinematheque", until July 2015.[5]
