Abstract

821-825 Druid Park Lake Drive is a one-acre greyfield site in Baltimore City’s Reservoir Hill neighborhood. Our redevelopment proposal, The Olmsted, is to construct a 205,890-square foot structure with 218 mixed-income residential units. Reservoir Hill is a historic neighborhood known for its Victorian mansions and architectural character. The site is bounded to the north by Druid Hill Park, a 745-acre park, the third oldest established park in the United States. The park was considered the centerpiece of Frederick Olmsted, Jr.’s 1904 comprehensive park plan for Baltimore.
