The NEI team in Baltimore has a new home! As of October 2022, we’ve occupied the first floor of 2526 St. Paul Street in the Greater Charles Village area. Charles Village is home to the Baltimore Museum of Art and Johns Hopkins University. The building is essentially a double wide rowhouse. The original construction dates to the turn of the 20th century. A more recent addition roughly doubled the size of the building (we’re guessing around the 1990s).
We’ve got some new office mates, including a consulting firm focusing on equity and social work counselors. Our office is directly adjacent to a sunken freight rail line to the north (we’re reminded it’s still active by trains rumbling by several times a day). The block made national news when heavy rains caused 26th street to collapse in 2014, swallowing some parked cars in the process. The rebuilt area has resulted in a new urban park.
The new space has allowed us room to grow. We recently welcomed the fifth member of our Baltimore team – our third new hire in the last two years! Our project reach continues to grow as well—last year we kicked off projects in North Carolina and Michigan. Here’s to our new home!
