Park Heights Renaissance

Established in 2007 to implement the neighborhood’s master plan, Park Heights Renaissance (PHR) is a CDC dedicated to revitalizing the 1,500 acre Park Heights community, the largest redevelopment effort in Maryland history.  Since the plan’s approval in 2008, several affordable housing developments have been created, including Renaissance Gardens, a 60-unit apartment complex for limited-income seniors.  The redevelopment’s next phase will focus on a 50-acre area, which encompasses hundreds of vacant properties.  The CDC also provides a range of community and human services for area residents.
