The following report was produced by graduate students in the Fall 2010 Interdisciplinary Studio sponsored by the Colvin Institute of Real Estate Development at the University of Maryland, College Park. It outlines two redevelopment and design proposals that the graduate students developed for Market Square in Bladensburg, Maryland. The proposals are informed by in-depth interdisciplinary research conducted about the town, including interviews with Bladensburg residents and stakeholders, historical research, and analyses of demographics, infrastructure, the physical landscape, and residential and retail markets.
The first Volume of this report includes the overview of the research and analysis of Bladensburg as a market and the two proposals. Volume II consists of the Appendices for the reports, and Volume III includes five individual real estate development plans for discrete parcels in Bladensburg. Volume II, Volume III, powerpoints of both proposals, and the five real estate development plans can be found on the cd included within this Volume.
