Stadium Place transforms the historic 30-acre site of the former Baltimore Memorial Stadium into a vibrant, mixed‑use senior living community that supports more than 370 older adults across diverse income levels. Designed as an integrated village, the development incorporates approximately 10,000 square feet of commercial amenities, including a coffee shop, dry cleaner, newsstand, pharmacy, and convenience store, all connected through a pedestrian‑focused, neighborhood‑scale plan. Buildings range from two to four stories and use traditional materials that complement the surrounding community fabric, with parking dispersed and largely hidden from view to maintain a welcoming streetscape.
What challenges did STV address?
The redevelopment required balancing a complex mix of stakeholder needs and regulatory requirements. STV worked alongside community groups, Baltimore City Planning and Public Works, and the project architect to ensure the plan respected the historic character of the site, integrated seamlessly with nearby residential areas, and met infrastructure, circulation and access considerations. The firm also navigated review processes with the Design Advisory Panel and the Site Plan Review Board Committee to secure necessary approvals.
What solutions did STV deliver?
STV established the site master plan and then prepared all Planned Unit Development and subdivision documentation required for city approval and recording. The team also developed complete site construction documents, including topographic and boundary surveys, site layout and grading, sediment control, utility systems, planting design and detailed site features to support a fully buildable package for the developer.
How does this project benefit the region?
Stadium Place stands as a national model for senior-focused, community‑oriented redevelopment. The project provides safe, accessible housing options, on‑site services and a walkable environment that enhances quality of life for older adults. It also revitalizes a historically significant site, strengthens neighborhood connections and brings essential amenities back into the community.
