Opened in 2003, the Boulevard at the Capital Centre was located next to the Largo Town Center Washington Metro station (the eastern terminus of the Blue and Silver Lines). The facility had more than 70 establishments. It was formerly the home of short-lived chain restaurant Gladys Knight & Ron Winans' Chicken & Waffles.

In November 2017, the shopping center closed to build the brand new University of Maryland Capital Region Medical Center. In addition there will be new luxury apartments, restaurants and a shopping center built. At the time of closing, surviving businesses included Chick-Fil-A, TGI Friday's, Carolina Kitchen, The Magic Johnson Theater, Phoenix Salon, Longhorn Steakhouse and Golden Corral. Ongoing construction may cause some of the remaining businesses to close. The area will be known as Downtown Largo once completed. Phase One of construction is expected to be finished not later than Spring 2021.

In July 2019, demolition of 290,000 square feet (27,000 m2) of retail space commenced to make way for Carillon, a new lifestyle-oriented mixed-use development on the same site.[4]
