Twin Groundbreakings Reveal Corporate Faces

The Pikesville Chamber of Commerce and Baltimore County and state officials welcomed businesses into the county's Pikesville Revitalization District.

Yesterday's twin groundbreakings in downtown Pikesville are proof that all groundbreakings are not created equal. Let's start off with the similarities: Both ceremonies were held within the "urban village" of Baltimore County's Pikesville Revitalization District—the walkable part of downtown Pikesville from Old Court Road south to Slade Ave., where the county has set guidelines for the appearance of buildings.
