subset to the a transit oriented community revitalization
strategy around the existing transit station.
Responsibilities:

Administration to prepare concept plans, submit and present
TOD options to stakeholders and community groups as a
supplement to the West Baltimore MARC Area Plan.

program as a tool to normalize the street
grid and repair the damage introduced to West
Baltimore in by an incomplete freeway terminating in the
area with abandoned abutments, retaining walls and ramps. |
