Councilman Marks: Housing project dropped in White Marsh

The following article was written by Coucilman David Marks about a housing project on Cowenton Avenue south of Joppa Road in White Marsh.

A developer has dropped plans for a housing project at 17 acres on Cowenton Avenue south of Joppa Road, located in the blue region (in the above map). I had downzoned the property – which was previously zoned for more than 60 homes – then worked with community associations on a bill that restricted development even more.

Many thanks to the Honeybrook Farms Community Association, Perry Hall Improvement Association, and White Marsh-Cowenton Community Association for their support.
