Locke Landing in Baltimore Peninsula currently encompasses one of the biggest constructions sites in the area as townhomes and new apartment buildings are rising at rapid pace at the 25-acre residential redevelopment. One new aspect of the development is the reconvening of Light St. which currently ends at the 1900 block in Riverside/South Baltimore.
Light St. is one of the most well-known streets as it passes through the bustle of the Inner Harbor and Harborplace and the many restaurants in Federal Hill, including the Cross Street Market. The street previously stopped at a fence that cut it off from the CSX and MARC train tracks and the I-95 bridges.
Locke Landing is a 809-unit residential development by master developer 28 Walker. It replaces the former Locke Insulators industrial campus that was previously active from 1920 to 2017.
