Since 1968, we’ve worked on thousands of projects, both big and small. Here are some of our favorites.
We brought together five municipalities from Prince George’s County to form a cohort focused on enhancing stormwater management practices.
Using arts planning to transform a basement into a functional creative public space via practical and cost-effective solutions.
We created conceptual designs to convert this two-story rowhome in Baltimore into a haven for artists, featuring studios, a gallery, and communal work areas.
NDC played a key role in envisioning the potential of this space, identifying key architectural elements, leading the engagement approach, synthesizing the information gathered into a prioritized programming list, and drafting an impactful vision report.
For this large-scale project, we assembled dozens of professionals who donated a total value of $110,000 for their expert services. The result was an impactful master plan that secured a $26M Federal TIGER Grant to make these community visions and reality.
NDC assisted in designing a traffic calming plan for the extended Cecil Elementary footprint.
Hope Village will become a model for addressing homelessness in cities. We created a planting site plan that includes native vegetation, private yards for each home, and a shared community garden.
This project is a cornerstone of the park’s equitable development plan, ensuring that it remains accessible and inclusive to the surrounding community.
We provided mentorship and design support to the 2023 Fellows who worked to address critical development needs within Baltimore’s middle-market neighborhoods.
We helped create a network of pathways that promote access to the farm’s wooded areas and its picturesque stream, including ADA-accessible paths.
