The Terraces at Park Heights is a groundbreaking initiative by the NHP Foundation that brings 100 units of affordable senior housing to the Park Heights community in Baltimore. Constructed on a formerly vacant lot at 4710 Park Heights Avenue—acquired from the city— the project included an additional $5.7 million of site infrastructure improvements to not only support the new 100-unit building, but also future neighborhood growth with an adjacent 53-unit multifamily building and 17 for-sale single family homes already in design. The infrastructure improvements also account for a proposed expansion of the community with another 83 single family and townhome lots as well as additional apartment buildings.

The Terraces at Park Heights features one- and two-bedroom apartments and a range of on-site amenities including a fitness center, library, computer center, and community kitchen. These features are designed to enhance residents’ quality of life and support aging in place. The development was constructed to meet National Green Building Standards, incorporating carport and gazebo-mounted solar panels along with battery storage to reduce environmental impact and promote energy efficiency.

The Terraces at Park Heights is part of the broader Park Heights Major Redevelopment initiative, which is catalyzing economic and community revitalization across the neighborhood. This comprehensive effort—supported by local and federal funding—aims to create a vibrant, inclusive community where seniors and families alike can thrive.
