ULI Baltimore's member only January Content Before Cocktails was held at Weinberg Place. Attendees heard from Scott Sider, Senior Project Manager, Michael Graves and Lisa Stachura
CHAI about the challenges and successes of the project.

Weinberg Place, originally developed in 1967 as a HUD Section 202 project known as the Concord Apartments, provides 231-units of affordable housing for seniors in Baltimore City. It was renovated in 2004 with the WSA housing team (formerly, Kann Partners) performing the A/E services. The current renovation -- for which WSA is again providing full A/E services, including a complete assessment of the existing building -- is being financed through the Maryland LIHTC program.

Thank you to our event sponsors: BECS, Gipe Architects and Harkins Builders.
