Frederick County government looks to build affordable housing on Prospect Center campus

The Frederick County government is taking steps to construct affordable housing units on the Prospect Center campus, which the county acquired in October 2021 for $20 million to use as a multi-agency complex. The 26-acre property on Himes Avenue in Frederick includes several large parking areas, in addition to the 209,000-square-foot main building, which the county previously used as a mass vaccination site.
