The company has no plans of opening in St. Mary's.
My recollection is the bubble/pool was built as a trade off for relief on some other aspect of the development.

The bubble pool was part of the trade off for the county allowing the developer to substitute BJs in place of the movie theater/entrainment complex that was originally zoned and agreed to.
