ArchPlan selected for rowhouse rehabilitations in EBDI

December 10, 2009

ArchPlan has recently been selected by Baltimore Community Lending (BCL) and East Baltimore Development Inc. (EBDI) as one of three firms to assist homeowners in East Baltimore in developing rehabilitation plans for their homes.  The EBDI Home Rehab Program provides grant funds to East Baltimore preservation block homeowners to undertake repairs that will make their homes safer, more functional, more attractive, and more valuable; the program is an alternative provided by EBDI in lieu of relocation.

ArchPlan has previously participated in master planning in the EBDI area as a subconsultant to Sasaki Associates of Boston; this work included developing the Phase II Preservation Report which included a focus on owner-occupied housing.  Subsequently, ArchPlan and Sulton Campbell Britt were retained as consultants to EBDI to study how the rowhouses identified for preservation could be renovated and be valuable assets in the overall master plan. This preliminary assessment laid the groundwork for the current project and also served as a basis for obtaining contractor’s cost estimates for EBDI to seek funding. 

The project is expected to begin early in 2010.
