1010 North Calvert Street
Location
1010 North Calvert Street, Baltimore, MD 21202
In 2014, Baltimore Heritage honored the Restoration and Rehabilitation of 1010 North Calvert Street with a Preservation Project Award.
Located along one of the grand rows in historic Mt. Vernon, 1010 North Calvert Street involved a lot of work on a lot of great historic materials. The project included stripping and reusing windows and doors, plastering walls and ceilings, and installing new plumbing and electrical throughout the building. And that was only after the building underwent complete brick and stone restoration (including the stoop). Even the signature Queen Anne’s windows were retained and restored.
