The Residences at Railroad Square Groundbreaking 

June 29, 2023, was a blistering hot and humid day. Not even the weather could dampen the excitement that buzzed inside the Steadman-Keenan America Legion Post 96 in Brunswick Maryland. The crowd gathered that day were celebrating nearly six years of collective efforts to make The Residences at Railroad Square a reality. 


Frederick County Executive Jessica Fitzwater writes in her August 3rd newsletter: 

“This month, we celebrated the official groundbreaking of The Residences at Railroad Square in the City of Brunswick! This project is incredible and would not have been possible without dedicated, creative partnerships. Railroad Square will bring 45 households to downtown Brunswick and is already helping to revitalize this entire city block right at the entry to the City from the C&O Canal. Our administration is proud to be a partner in this project and is committed to making housing more attainable and affordable.” 


Interfaith Housing Alliance (IHA) is the nonprofit partner and owner. IHA will be providing property management services and supportive services to the residents of The Residences at Railroad Square. 


Construction is expected to be completed in August 2024. Marketing and leasing activities will begin in April 2024. Please keep checking this location for updates: Rental Communities | Interfaith Housing Alliance
