What if stormwater runoff could be managed in a way that works more like nature?

Last week, our CityScape Engineering, LLC team had the opportunity to visit Backyard Basecamp’s BLISS Meadows in Northeast Baltimore to learn more about an innovative project underway using a regenerative stormwater conveyance (RSC) system.

Backyard Basecamp was founded in 2019 by Atiya Wells, a pediatric nurse and naturalist who saw a need for greater representation and access to nature-based experiences. Today, the organization works to reconnect Black, Indigenous, and other people of color with local food, land, and nature.

At BLISS Meadows, that mission has helped transform roughly 10 acres of urban land into a community green space with an urban farm, forest, ponds, gardens, and environmental education programming.

Now, the next chapter includes rethinking how stormwater moves through the property.

RSC systems use shallow pools, riffles, vegetation, and natural materials to slow, spread, and filter stormwater runoff while helping restore the surrounding landscape.

We joined Atiya Wells and Kieron George from Backyard Basecamp for a tour, along with John Sarbanes and Kristen Fidler from The Sarbanes Center and Matthew Garbark and Kim Grove from Baltimore City Department of Public Works. The group discussed the current project and opportunities to apply similar approaches to future installations.

CityScape is assisting with plans review and permitting, while Underwood & Associates is leading the design and construction.

It’s a great example of engineering, ecology, and community coming together to find a better way to manage stormwater.

What does it take to turn a former Baltimore Honda service center into a $30 million mixed-use development?

Quite a bit of work below, around, and outside the building itself!

The new six-story building at 2507 N. Howard Street transforms a former industrial site between South Re*****on and Station North into a mixed-use development with 64 apartments, approximately 25,000 SF of office and community space, and ground-floor retail.

CityScape Engineering, LLC partnered with Seawall to provide the civil engineering and permitting needed to support that transformation.

Site demolition, grading, and utility plans
Stormwater management and erosion & sediment control design
Water and sanitary service connections
Fire hydrant design and permitting along N. Howard Street
Six accessible sidewalk ramps and street restriping associated with the project’s traffic mitigation requirements
Baltimore City Site Plan Review coordination
DOT Developer’s Agreement coordination and permitting
Bid-phase and construction support

From early site planning through permitting and construction support, CityScape helped navigate the civil infrastructure and City approvals needed to move this urban redevelopment forward.

The building may get most of the attention. Still, utilities, stormwater, pedestrian accessibility, streets, and public infrastructure all work together to transform an underused property into a place where people can live, work, and connect.

A special thank you to our Project Manager, Bobby Haase, P.E., for bringing his experience and expertise to this project and helping guide CityScape’s work every step of the way.

And to our additional partners: Floura Teeter Landscape Architects, Inc. | JP2 Architects | J Cole Builders | Structura | Saba Hamidi | Lorax Partnerships LLC

We are proud to have played a role in this transformation in Baltimore!

Are you the person who keeps projects moving?

CityScape Engineering, LLC is hiring a Civil Project Coordinator to join our Baltimore team and help deliver green infrastructure, stormwater management, urban redevelopment and environmental restoration projects throughout the region.

We’re looking for someone who knows how to keep the many moving pieces of a civil engineering project connected—from schedules and deliverables to permitting, agency coordination, construction documents and field support.

You may be a great fit if you bring:
• 5+ years of A/E/C, environmental or consulting project coordination experience
• An understanding of stormwater management, site grading and civil engineering standards
• Experience supporting permitting and coordinating with regulatory agencies
• Strong organization and communication skills across multiple projects and teams
• Experience with AutoCAD/Civil 3D and ArcGIS—or the technical background to jump in and contribute

You'll work alongside our engineers and project managers on projects that are helping create greener, healthier, and more resilient Baltimore communities.

Engineering runs in Caroline Bibb’s family. Inspired by her grandfather, she studied environmental engineering at the University of Delaware and built a career around solving water-resource challenges.

Before joining CityScape, Caroline had already been living in Baltimore and working throughout the region for several years—but opportunities to work on projects within Baltimore City were few and far between.

CityScape’s focus on urban green infrastructure offered something different: the chance to apply her water resources experience close to home and contribute directly to the city where she lives.

Today, Caroline gets to see the firm’s work in action and, as CityScape’s project experience has grown, see how individual projects connect across Baltimore neighborhoods.

Her time at CityScape has also reinforced her belief that strong water resources engineering requires more than technical expertise. It takes resourcefulness, curiosity, and an understanding of the people who will ultimately use and maintain what is designed.

“The community is the expert on how they use the space,” she says. “It has to be a collaborative process.”

That philosophy carries into Caroline’s work. She takes the time to understand the communities behind each project—their goals, their challenges, and what they value—then considers how infrastructure can build on what is already there and realistically serve them long after construction is complete.

It’s the thread running through Caroline’s journey: engineering inspired by family, grounded in Baltimore, strengthened through collaboration, and measured by how well it serves people and the environment over time.

The response to our internship program this year was overwhelming!
Rather than turning talented students away, we decided to create a Student Industry Day—giving aspiring civil engineers an opportunity to connect with our team, explore our work, and get a closer look at what a career in civil engineering can look like.

One of the highlights of the day was an interactive bioretention model designed and built by our interns. Built to scale with clear plexiglass walls and a working water pump to simulate rainfall, the model gives students a cross-sectional view of how a bioretention system functions beneath the surface.

It's a hands-on way to demonstrate one of the stormwater management practices our team regularly designs and how it helps manage runoff, improve water quality, and support more sustainable communities.

We believe the best way to inspire future engineers is to let them see engineering in action.

A big thank you to Ryan Lindsay and Miriam Albert for creating an engaging learning tool that we'll continue using at future student outreach events.

Engineering wasn’t just a career choice for Miriam Albert—it was a natural fit.

After discovering a passion for STEM classes, joining her high school’s robotics team, and realizing she loved physics and math, Miriam knew she wanted a career where she could use those skills to solve real-world problems and make a positive impact on the communities around her.

As a mechanical engineering student at the University of Maryland with an interest in civil engineering, she’s spending her internship at CityScape Engineering, LLC turning classroom knowledge into real project experience.

This summer, she’s especially excited to help build a model bioretention facility and learn firsthand how these systems are designed to manage stormwater and improve our environment.

One of the biggest surprises? Engineering doesn’t stop at design. Miriam has already had the opportunity to coordinate with Baltimore City agencies on permitting projects—an important part of bringing great ideas to life that you won’t find in most textbooks.

If she could shadow anyone at CityScape for a day, she’d choose Bobby Haase, P.E. to get a behind-the-scenes look at site work and experience the energy he brings to every project.

Looking ahead, Miriam hopes to help redesign Baltimore’s public transportation system, making it easier and more accessible for people to move throughout the city.

We’re excited to have Miriam on the team and can’t wait to see where her passion for engineering takes her!
