Tivoly Avenue, located in East Baltimore, is a street etched with a troubled past and a hopeful future. Infamous for high rates of drugs, violence, and crime, it was burdened with a distressingly high violent and property crime index. However, Tivoly Avenue is not merely a tale of urban decay; it's a narrative of transformative change. In November 2010, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake launched the "Vacants to Value" program, a city-led initiative aimed at demolishing or rehabilitating derelict structures.
This program redefined Tivoly Avenue, transitioning from a street marred by 98 vacant properties and countless crimes, to a focal point of urban renewal. The last of these properties saw their end after many years, marking a significant turning point in the avenue's history. Now, Tivoly Avenue stands as a testament to the city's commitment to improving its communities, shedding its previous image as a hotspot for crime and becoming a symbol of resilience and urban revitalization.
