The Jewish Museum of Maryland was founded in 1960 to rescue and restore the historic Lloyd Street Synagogue. As a long-time community anchor, the JMM has played a leading role in facilitating the creation of a unified vision for the development of a heritage district in its Jonestown neighborhood. This grant supports a master planning effort to develop a Neighborhood Vision Plan for Historic Jonestown, in partnership with The ASSOCIATED, Jonestown Planning Council, Historic Jonestown, Inc., local businesses and social service providers, as well as elected officials and representatives from city agencies.
