Maryland to auction Middle River warehouse property
Published May 9th, 2006
The federal government plans to sell Middle River Station, a historic 1.9 million-square-foot complex on 50 acres in eastern Baltimore County.
The site, which served as Martin Aircraft Manufacturing Plant during World War II, will be offered in an online auction beginning June 28, according to the U.S. General Services Administration. Bidding is expected to start at $10 million.
The redevelopment of the warehouse property is expected to play a significant role in the continued revitalization of the eastern portion of Baltimore County.
Already, the area is undergoing residential and commercial growth with the injection of $800 million of private and public funds.
Baltimore County leaders have pledged to work with developers on permitting, financing, tax incentives and possible inclusion in the North Point Enterprise Zone.
The site, 13 miles northeast of Baltimore City, is on the Baltimore County Landmark Buildings List and the Maryland Historical Trust’s Inventory of Historic Properties. It is zoned for manufacturing and heavy industrial, but could be changed to accommodate other types of redevelopment.
