In the Summer of 2020 the Department of Public Works began the cleanup of Alleys 26A and 26B, between 44th Ave and Baltimore Ave. It was noticed that the alley was used primarily as a pedestrian walkway between Baltimore Ave and the neighborhood. Staff felt this was a good candidate to be a converted to a green alley and submitted the project to the Chesapeake Bay Trust Stormwater Stewardship Grant for the funding of the design.
Next Steps:
Award funding for the design.

$36,702
