David Bramble on Harborplace’s future: ‘How do we capture some new magic?’

Reinventing Harborplace will require input, ideas and energy from all corners of Baltimore and promises to be an epic urban renewal project, new owner P. David Bramble said in an interview Tuesday night. Bramble, managing partner of MCB Real Estate, said his efforts to acquire Harborplace had been in the works for a long time, but the process was slowed by a court-ordered receivership. The beleaguered landmark’s redevelopment and a timeline for the turnaround are in the very early stages and will not launch until the sale is approved by the Circuit Court of Baltimore City, which oversees the receivership.
