Our Mission
Cambridge Waterfront Development, Inc. is a non-profit development corporation formed by the City of Cambridge, Dorchester County, and the State of Maryland for purposes of collaborative planning and development of properties along and adjacent to the Cambridge waterfront. CWDI’s mission is to develop the Cambridge Waterfront in partnership with the community to create and sustainably maintain Cambridge Harbor as an inviting, accessible, active, and enjoyable place to live, work, play and visit.
Defining Who We Are
The Cambridge Harbor brand came to life through extensive research and guidance from community members. We pored over multiple municipal reports, read and watched many historical accounts of Cambridge, and even heard firsthand accounts from the community to understand “The cultures and traditions that make us, Us!”
Our tagline, “Lured by the Water, Kept by our Heritage,” encompasses the blue-collar, maritime spirit of a city steeped in history. The water draws residents and visitors to our site, but the community’s collective cultural narrative and experiences keep us here.
