History: Prior to the building's vacancy, Baltimore Station 1 had a rich history as a department store, art supply store, Coney Island, and Caribbean restaurant. This development brings back crucial infill retail on a block that has successful and long-standing retail neighbors.

On Community Engagement: We reach out to our small business neighbors for conversation and exchange on all projects. We do this to share and test development plans. We also work with community partners to connect local residents with job opportunities for our retail tenants.

On Design Excellence: On the portion of Baltimore Station 1 that was built in 1922, we preserved the original glazed brick facade and several other interior brick walls that now serve to demise retail and residential spaces. Originally a two-story building, we constructed a third story to add more residential units.  The third story offers generous patios with views of the neighborhood.
