Leaders push for redevelopment near Lutherville light rail stop

The redevelopment is supposed to take place on an empty parcel of land off Ridgely Road. Baltimore County Executive Johnny Olszewski wants to move things ahead. “A mix of housing and commercial, which is where we think the future is going in Baltimore County. We’re largely built out. We’re up against our developed land. We need to be creative and thoughtful about creating new opportunities to create housing, but also invigorate and reinvest in our existing neighborhoods,” Olszewski said. The Maryland Transit Administration plans to expand mass transit options in the area, but nothing can happen without proper zoning, and that’s before any permits can be issued.
