MISSION AND DESIGN APPROACH

The Olive Group, LLC is a construction management firm that specializes in redeveloping neighborhoods by focusing on multi-family/single family housing and light commercial tenant build-outs located in revitalization zones and under served neighborhoods.

Our approach to community redevelopment is to fill the void left within areas which are often overlooked and considered too small of an undertaking to be financed by the large developer.

A driving ambition of the Olive Group is the transformation of a properties image through the application of affordable innovative design solutions. The Olive Group is capable of augmenting projects with it's in-house architectural design services.

Project size does not dictate our level of commitment but rather the Olive Group commits an all out effort to all projects with the design philosohpy of "practical design solutions with exceptional results"

COMMUNITY COMMITMENT

The Olive Group is committed to community involvement and parterning opportunities associated with that involvement. In the spring of 2007 Mr. Matthew Tuttle joined the Marble Hill Community Development Corporation, a nonprofit neighborhood organization that is located in Baltimore. Its primary focus is to bring the community together through small community greening projects. In the fall of 2007 Mr. Tuttle was instrumental in the start of the Henry Highland Garnett Landscaping project. A local park that the residents have been working to revitalize and through a grant awarded by the Parks and People organization a community barbecue and park clean up day was held. A group picture from that event is shown below.

Additionally, in the fall of 2007 the Olive Group partnered with another local development company, Zovaya Corporation. A walking tour of renovated "SCOPE" properties in Marble Hill was held. The tour was attended by City of Baltimore agencies such as the Department of Real Estate, Department of Housing Office of Real Property Disposition, The Office of Neighborhood Revitalization, and The Greater Baltimore Board of Realtors.
