Cummings To Announce Housing Grant

BALTIMORE (AP) -- Congressman Elijah Cummings will be in West Baltimore to announce a grant for revitalizing a housing project.

Baltimore is one of 17 cities receiving urban revitalization grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

The money will go to Jubilee Inc., which plans to redevelop Pedestal Gardens, a 203-unit, federally subsidized housing complex.

Cummings will join Sen. Ben Cardin and other officials to detail the grant Friday morning. West Baltimore is part of the Democratic congressman's district.
