Central Gateway Community Development Corporation applied for, and received, Community Legacy funding in 2006, which the County supported in CR-8-2006, and adopted on February 21, 2006. The Kingdom Square Shopping Center, formerly known as Hampton Mall, is a commercial property bordering the Capital Beltway in Capitol Heights.
