Developer buys country club to save housing deal
DUNDALK, Md. — Land for new homes is so scarce in Dundalk that one real estate developer agreed to run a country club to save a deal to build more than 300 homes. Conor Gilligan made a deal with Sparrows Point Country Club in 2017 to develop a portion of the country club into luxury housing. The development is one of the largest in Dundalk, an area of Baltimore County that hasn't seen many new single-family home developments in decades. The deal for Gilligan's firm, Craftsmen Cos., was in jeopardy in 2020 when the club almost went into bankruptcy. Gilligan decided he needed to save the deal by agreeing to run and renovate the country club.
