Region III encompasses five states and the District of Columbia.  

## What’s Driving Transit Oriented Development?

**Notes:**
Baltimore City, in conjunction with the non-profit East Baltimore Development, Inc. is using a $21.2 million Section 108 loan to facilitate Phase I of the East Baltimore Development Project.
The Project includes building a Biotech Park adjacent to the Johns Hopkins Medical University and Medical Institute Campus that will ultimately create 2 million square feet of life science and technology space and create 4 to 6 thousand new jobs.
The goal is to revitalize the neighborhood by renovating existing buildings and developing new housing surrounding the Biotech Park.
Integral to the total development project is the creation of over 1200 new and rehabilitated mixed-income housing units and the renewal of several residential neighborhoods adjacent to the development.
The Section 108 loan will be used for acquisition, demolition and relocation.
