A new "food court" was constructed outside the mall, at which time new restaurants such as Qdoba, Bonefish Grill, Five Guys, Vaccaros Italian Pastries, and Red Robin moved into the outdoor spaces.

In addition, more upscale retailers, such as Hollister (which replaced the former KB Toys and later closed) and American Eagle were also added.

[6] In 2013, the mall lost longtime tenant Old Navy, which moved to the new Boulevard at Box Hill shopping center in Abingdon, Maryland and was then replaced by The Shoe Department Encore,[7] and Payless Shoe Source announced plans to close its Harford Mall location in February 2019 as part of the chain's bankruptcy.

[8] In the same month, Charlotte Russe also announced plans to close its Harford Mall location along with many other stores across the country.

Stores located in the Annex include Office Depot, Dollar Tree, PetSmart and Banfield Pet Hospital, and Best Buy.

[12] In November 2021, it was announced that the Sears store, which closed in early 2020, would be demolished in order to build a 59,600 square foot outdoor shopping complex outside of the mall.

[13] There are no longer plans for an "Amazon Fresh" grocery store and the current space is vacant and a grand leasing opportunity.
