Type General Session

Baltimore’s housing history is marked by significant events, challenges and opportunities that have shaped the urban landscape. Social, economic and political factors have played a role over time, as have strong community leaders and local development partners. Like many cities, we have struggled greatly with housing discrimination and declining population; yet we have worked passionately to address these challenges.

Kim Clark, Executive Vice President of the Baltimore Development Corporation, and Dan Henson, III, President of Henson Development Corporation and former director of one of the Nation’s largest public housing authorities, will share highlights of our history, accomplishments and lessons learned related to the ongoing work that continues to shape and improve our communities.
