Highlandtown Arts & Entertainment District (current)
Three Intersections on Eastern Avenue
In 2013, the Southeast CDC brought ARTblocks in to address three of the principal intersections on Eastern Avenue: Conkling, East and Highland.
Three separate Creative Placemaking workshops were held with residents, stakeholders and members of the community with varying goals, outcomes and action items.
The strategic plans for all three intersections are currently being implemented.
Due to the success of this process to date, ARTblocks is now included an Our Town grant to hold three additional Creative Placemaking workshops in 2014: one in Highlandtown, and another in Baltimore’s Bromo Tower Arts & Entertainment District.
