Green Network Pilot Project: Cab Calloway Legends Park

One of the Baltimore Green Network's pilot projects, Cab Calloway Legends Park reached an important milestone in February 2023. All of the 14,000 square feet of alleys and street within the footprint of Cab Calloway Legends Park was removed to create a green space for the park. 

Thanks to a grant from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources' Chesapeake and Coastal Bay grant and a grant from the Maryland Dept. of Housing and Community Development's Community Legacy program, the Baltimore City Department of Transportation removed all of the pavement from the park's footprint.

The Baltimore Green Network is an initiative of the Baltimore City Department of Planning to work with neighborhoods to transform vacant lots into community amenities as well as create a multi-use trail around the city of Baltimore.
