Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Located along the Central Avenue corridor in the Pleasant View Gardens neighborhood within Baltimore's Perkins Somerset Oldtown district, the property at 200 N Central Avenue features a five-level, 153,447-square-foot building on a 2.73-acre (118,888-square-foot) lot. Originally constructed in 1923 as Frederick Douglass High School, the first high school for African American students in Maryland, the building served as the main campus of Sojourner–Douglas College from 2002 until its closure in 2015. The current ownership acquired the property in 2023 and completed a rezoning from EC-2 to C-2, which allows for a wide range of potential alternative uses. The surrounding area is part of the Perkins Somerset Oldtown Transformation Plan, a long-term initiative to revitalize East Baltimore, particularly around historic housing complexes and market sites. Since 2016, over $540 million has been invested by federal, state, city, and private sources to support mixed-income housing, office, retail, and community amenities. The site is eligible for various incentive programs for both adaptive reuse and new construction. Although historically significant, the property is not a designated landmark and may be substantially altered or demolished, allowing for hundreds of thousands of square feet of new development under flexible C-2 zoning with no maximum FAR.

Key Highlights

  • Flexible C‑2 zoning allows for a wide range of alternative uses and new development with no maximum FAR.
  • Significant revitalization efforts in the surrounding Perkins Somerset Oldtown area with over $540 million invested since 2016.
  • Sizeable 2.73‑acre lot with a 153,447‑square‑foot building.
