Rendering of new development at corner of LaSalle and Joppa
Councilman David Marks said today: “I am happy to announce that steps are underway to prepare the derelict Raytheon building on East Joppa Road for demolition. This is the area across from Applebee’s restaurant.
The nine-acre site will be replaced by Loch Raven Commons, a multi-use development that includes 208 luxury apartment units with a village green, two multi-tenant retail buildings and a convenience store. Our office worked with Loch Raven Village and Towson Estates on the Planned Unit Development resolution in 2013 and 2014.
East Joppa Road badly needs a facelift in some areas, and I am hopeful that this redevelopment project will spark future improvements along the corridor.”
The nearby Glory Days Grill and Loane Brothers are not part of the re-development, Marks said.
Thank God. That area is a dead zone.
