National sneaker chain Snipes expands footprint in Baltimore

Snipes, a fast-growing retail chain that got its start from one of Germany’s largest shoe company, is opening its fourth store in Greater Baltimore. The national footwear store recently leased 5,500 square feet at 5600 The Alameda for its second city location. The move to the 89,000-square-foot Alameda Marketplace boosts the small strip center located about a mile from Morgan State University toward full occupancy as it restocks tenants post-Covid-19. The retailer has another store at 300 W. Lexington St. and two others in Baltimore County.
