Calvert Square/Young Terrace master plan
Summary
The city and NRHA shared the draft plan for transforming the last two 1950s-era public housing communities, with Gilbane as master developer and a 95-unit build-first project targeted for 2030. Residents' representatives flagged that youth-serving organizations like Teens with a Purpose don't appear on the concept map, and leaders agreed to engage affected institutions.
