Baltimore experiment to lure residents to central city
Architect Moshe Safdie designs a 375 acre “new town within a town” for Baltimore. The plan creates 3,200 dwellings for 12,000 people over five years at about 200 million dollars, mixing townhouses multistory and cluster housing on a quarryed site in Coldspring. Targeted to middle income families with annual incomes from 7000 to 19000, it aims to merge urban amenities with suburban density and topography to revive downtown living and inform other cities facing rising costs and shrinking vacant land.
