Camden Crossing - Baltimore, MarylandMETROVENTURES is the developer of Camden Crossing, a neo-traditional market rate MetroHome community on an 8-acre site located on the western edge of downtown Baltimore. When complete, Camden Crossing will consist of 150 three-bedroom, three-story, garage townhomes. Each standard home will provide 1,650 square feet of livable space, plus a 200-square-foot one-car garage. The urban design of the community includes features, included rear-accessed garages, a central park, pocket parks, tree-lined streets, historic architecture, and state-of-the-art technology design features.
Camden Crossing is located in the West Empowerment Zone community of Washington Village and its development will have significant impact on revitalization of this community by promoting economic diversity and improving the fabric of the urban environment. Although community consensus from the residents of Washington
Village was a major area of concern, METROVENTURES sought and received
overwhelming community approval for Camden Crossing. As a part of its
community outreach program, METROVENTURES is providing technical assistence
to the Empowerment Zone Village Center in devising a retail strategy for
the Main Street redevelopment of Washington Boulevard, the neighborhood's
commercial corridor. METROVENTURES is also working with its community
partner, Tri-Churches, Inc., a local nonprofit group, to develop a neighborhood
marketing program aimed at attracting a more diverse base of businesses
and residents to the area.

profitability and as the basis for construction financing.
