250 Mission features 162 luxury apartment residences, of which 35 are affordable at 80% area median income (AMI). In addition, Rye House features 254 total units, with 45 low income housing tax credit (LIHTC) units available at 50% AMI and nine residences available at 30% AMI, provided through project-based vouchers at the discretion of the City of Baltimore. As part of its previously stated MOU commitments, the development team remains committed to ensuring 20% of the total Baltimore Peninsula residential offering is affordable housing.

“We are proud to bring a new, inclusive approach to residential housing, further demonstrating our commitment to impact at Baltimore Peninsula,” said MaryAnne Gilmartin, Founder and CEO of MAG Partners. “Welcoming residents to fully amenitized, high-quality homes for the first time in this neighborhood is transformative, and increases the options for quality waterfront living.”

“Inclusivity is the cornerstone of transformative development, which is why we are excited to create new housing opportunities that will support local residents from a diverse range of incomes and backgrounds,” said Victor MacFarlane, Chairman and CEO of MacFarlane Partners. “Baltimore Peninsula is poised to become a thriving, 24-hour neighborhood, as we prepare to welcome our first full-time residents.”

“Bringing full-time residents to Baltimore Peninsula has always been the most exciting element of the masterplan – creating a neighborhood and community from a formerly vacant piece of land,” said Kevin Plank, Principal and CEO of Sagamore Ventures. “Now, Baltimore Peninsula can welcome residents from across the region to beautiful, waterfront apartments complete with high quality amenities and programming.”

“Providing high-quality housing opportunities for residents across all income levels is another key milestone in creating an inclusive community. We look forward to the community’s continued growth as we expand options for affordable housing, and we’re excited to begin welcoming residents to Baltimore Peninsula,” said Michael Lohr, ManagingDirector, Goldman Sachs Asset Management. 

“This neighborhood was always intended to be for everyone, and the residential unit mix reflects that,” said Marc Weller, Founding Partner and President of Weller Development Partners. “The variety and flexibility of the residential offers unique options for any potential resident.”
