The Baltimore City Council approved adding the former Florence Crittenton Home to its historic landmark list Monday night.
The home, located at 3110 Crittenton Place in Hampden, served as a sanctuary for young unwed mothers, but closed its doors in August of 2010, according to WMAR-TV.
According to the Baltimore Sun, the building is owned by Hamilton bank, and that the bank is interested in selling the building to a developer.
Once the home is placed on the landmark list, restrictions will be placed on what an owner may do to it in terms of rehabbing the building, and protect it from being demolished.
Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake is expected to approve adding the building to the city’s landmark list.
The Crittenton Home would be the latest home in North Baltimore to be added to the city’s landmark list.
In the past two years both the Shelley House in Hampden and the Grace Turnbull House in Guilford have been added to the list.
