In response to a recently issued Request for Proposals, the Baltimore Development Corp. recently announced that it has received one proposal for the Liberty Clay site, the last major development parcel within the Westside Superblock.
The proposal, submitted by American National LLC (Cary Luskin and Michael Seipp), calls for the redevelopment of properties owned by Luskin (100-106 W. Lexington Street) in conjunction with the city-owned properties offered through the Liberty Clay RFP to create a larger development.
The project would include apartments, a parking garage and street level commercial space. The retail space would primarily face Lexington Street, with a six-story parking garage constructed on the existing surface parking lot south of Clay Street; seven floors of apartments are designed to be above the parking structure, and a new eight-story building would be erected at the corner of Lexington Street and Park Avenue connected to the parking garage.
The two historic buildings owned by Luskin would be converted to apartments with ground floor retail space. Preliminary plans indicate 152 one-two-and-three bedroom apartments; 15,935 square feet of retail space; 7,410 square feet of office space; and 316 parking spaces.
Liberty Clay consists of eight development parcels within Disposition Lot #29 identified in the total Market Center (Westside) Urban Renewal Area, bounded by Cathedral and Liberty Streets on the east; Pratt and Lombard Streets and Washington Boulevard on the south; and Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard on the north and west.
The disposition lot includes the following properties: 116-120 West Lexington Street; 207-209 Park Avenue; 213 Park Avenue; 215 Park Avenue; 105-107 Clay Street; 109 Clay Street; 208 North Liberty Street; and 210-216 North Liberty Street.
The proposal is under reviewed at BDC.
