Over the past 10 years, Tradepoint Atlantic has worked to clean up the infamous remnants of the Bethlehem Steel Days to bring back new reimagined glory days to the Port of Baltimore.
“This is the next major phase of redevelopment and clean up at Sparrows Point,” said Aaron Tomarchio, Executive Vice President of Tradepoint Atlantic.
To do that, Tradepoint Atlantic is working to rebuild an efficient port economy that will no longer be tied to one single company.
“Fifty world-class tenants here ranging from McCormick and Under Armour to Perdue to Home Depot Gotham Greens, just to name a few of our tenants here and they span many different elements of our economy,” Tomarchio said.
So the plan is to build a new container terminal, along with the growing industry buildings, on this massive piece of land that holds a lot of history. But its goal is to return Baltimore to its prominence as a global economic hub.
This billion-dollar project will bring more than 1,100 jobs and restore a somewhat forgotten hub.
