Revitalization
Breathing new life into Baltimore neighborhoods
The Ashland Community Development Corporation contends that revitalization to a neighborhood is important because it can lead to numerous benefits for individuals and communities, including enhanced economic stability, infrastructure improvements, and increased quality of life. It can also contribute to environmental sustainability, cultural preservation, and social inclusion.
ACDC Baltimore has successfully completed a number of beautification projects that fulfill this mission. (see below)
Food Insecurity
Job Placement
Affordable Housing
Beautification
Historical Preservation
Before & After
ACDC Baltimore is working toward sponsoring projects like these that not only beautify but stimulate economic growth and increase property values. They are not looking to gentrify, they want to revitalize! The advantages to implementing projects like these go far beyond the beauty they provide. Restoring older buildings and homes if far less expensive than building new structures. And preserving the architectural integrity of these homes maintains the historical character of the neighborhood. These types of projects have been very successful in other parts of the country and ACDC Baltimore wants to bring that success to our city.
