Constructed in 1891, the former Eastern Pumping Station served the City of Baltimore for over a century until it was abandoned in the 1990s. Today, the Baltimore Pumphouse consists of 5 historic structures on 4.1 acres of land at a critical gateway in the heart of East Baltimore. Despite the proximity to John Hopkins Hospital and the $1.8 billion investment in the East Baltimore Development Initiative (EBDI), the vacant campus has long acted as an island of blight, isolating the historically disinvested Broadway East community north of the Amtrak rail line. The Baltimore Pumphouse will shift this narrative by establishing a vital community hub and town center and providing much-needed community services, retail amenities, and small-businesses incubation.
Previous phases of the Project have brought $10.3MM of public and private investment to complete 2 Buildings on the Campus – the $2.8 MM rehabilitation of the Historic Storehouse (Building 3), which serves creative small-business tenants, and the construction of the 8,000 SF Kitchens Building, a shared commercial kitchen and incubator serving six small businesses and a non-profit culinary training program.
