Kevin Plank, the feisty Founder and CEO of sports apparel giant Under Armour, has two ambitious goals: to grow his company into a $10 billion brand, which would be more than double its $4.8 billion revenue in 2016, and to turn Baltimore, Under Armour's home for nearly 20 years, into "the coolest city in America." Those objectives have more in common than one might think. The 44-year-old Plank plans to build a 3.9-million-sf headquarters on a 58-acre campus within Port Covington, a post-industrial area along the Patapsco River in South Baltimore. Under Armour acquired that property from Sagamore Development, Plank's real estate development company, which is the master planner and builder of Port Covington's $5.5 billion waterfront redevelopment, one of the biggest commercial projects In the country.
