County To Announce Major Development In Towson

County Executive Kevin Kamemetz and representatives of DMS Development are expected to announce Tuesday a mixed residential-retail project for the area known as the Towson Triangle.

The announcement will include a proposal for a planned unit development to include between 200 and 300 apartments and some retail space. Pending required approvals, the proposed $60 million project could be completed by 2018, according to a source with knowledge of the project who spoke on background because they were not authorized to discuss the project in advance of the announcement.

The property is bordered by York Road, Towsontown Boulevard and West Burke Avenue.

Don Mohler, a spokesman for the county executive, and David Schlachman, a principal with Towson-Based DMS Development, both declined to comment on the project in advance of the Tuesday announcement.

DMS Development currently lists a project known as Towson Bypass on its website. The page claims to control 2.5 acres "in the center of downtown Towson."

A search of state land records shows that Towson Bypass LLC owns at leat two properties in the Triangle area including the panhandle-shaped property at 105 York Road and quadrangle-shaped property at 107 York Road.
