<h1 style="text-align: center;">Fallston, <em>Baltimore</em></h1>
<p>Fallston is located in Harford County, Maryland. The population was 8,427 at the 2000 census.</p>
<p>Fallston mostly consists of farms or residential housing. There is, though a strip of Belair Road (Rt 1) running through the south-east side of the town (technically outside of Fallston proper, in an area once known as 'Benson'). This part of Fallston is packed with much business. As of early 2007, plans for a construction of a Walmart Super Store and other businesses were planned.</p>
<p>It was not until mid 2007 that this massive project was undertaken and given a name, 'Fallston Commons'. It covers a mass of over 800 acres (3.2 km2). The construction will be a boulevard, consisting of two parallel roads running side-by-side. Approximately 300 senior citizen town homes will be built in addition to an assisted living retirement home. Besides the Walmart Super Store, a Starbucks, and a Wendy's will be built in addition to numerous other businesses. Walmart is funding the massive project and will turn part of Belair Road into a six-lane highway and will add four new intersections and stop lights to assist in managing the traffic.</p>
<p>he center of the community is generally considered to be Fallston High School or the Parks and Recreational complex. A multi-use Senior Center/Recreation Facility is currently under construction as an addition to the Parks &amp; Rec complex.</p>
<p>The prestigious Ladew Topiary Gardens as well as the historic village Jerusalem Mill, the Jericho Road Covered Bridge and the Gunpowder Falls State Park are located nearby.</p>
