SCNA Festival with The Gathering

Festival with The Gathering

What a wonderful event! The SCNA and Mount Royal CDC cannot thank The Gathering enough for believing in our cause and for showcasing what a rich and vibrant place West Baltimore can be!  State Center Redevelopment will bring jobs and access to jobs, affordable housing and it will end the food desert through its transit-orientated development and a focus on community – all the communities.  Close to 1,000 people turned out to this event – excited about the possibilities of the future!

Let’s ‪#‎growbaltimore‬ at ‪#‎statecenter‬! Let’s invest in Baltimore West and continue to ‪#‎gather‬ there!
