Metro Heights at Mondawmin provides 70 new one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments for the area’s workforce, replacing the site’s 12 vacant, abandoned lots and structures. Built to LEED Gold standards, it includes many energy-efficient and sustainable features. Amenities include in-unit washer/dryers, on-site parking, a club room, business center, fitness room, and yoga studio. It is within walking distance of the Metro and numerous bus lines.
The area has been the focus of substantial investment. However, the April 2015 unrest cast an unwarranted negative picture of the community. It was important that the development speak to the positive future of the city and neighborhood. The development fulfills the Greater Mondawmin Area’s Master Plan goal of addressing pockets of blight by strategically placing much-needed workforce housing in areas where residents can utilize area amenities.
