The location was once home to the Washington, Baltimore, and Annapolis Electric Railway's Annapolis terminus, also known as the "Best Gate" station. It featured three single-ended sidings and four double-ended sidings where rail cars could be shifted onto or off of the WB&A's single-track east-west railway that connected to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and Pennsylvania Railroad lines. The adjoining Bestgate Road, which presently runs along the mall's northern edge, received its name from this "Best Gate" station.
