The park association announced that it has selected the Parks & People Foundation, in partnership with the Baltimore City Department of Recreation and Parks, to receive the grant from the Great Urban Parks Campaign, a national program that supports the redevelopment of aging infrastructure in urban parks. The program is an initiative of the NRPA and the American Planning Association.

The grant will be used to improve Ambrose Kennedy Park, a blighted. 1.75-acre park in the Johnson Square neighborhood of East Baltimore.
