About Greenbelt, Maryland

Greenbelt is a city of 24,921 people in Prince George's County, just north of Washington. It was the first and largest of three New Deal Greenbelt Towns, along with Greenhills, Ohio, and Greendale, Wisconsin. Rexford Tugwell, the Undersecretary of Agriculture, came up with the plan in 1935. He wanted the federal government to build a cooperative town that would ease the housing shortage near the capital and create jobs after the Great Depression. Congress passed the funding law on April 8, 1935, and on May 1 President Roosevelt set up the Resettlement Administration, with Tugwell in charge.

Eleanor Roosevelt helped Tugwell plan the town on land that had been mostly tobacco fields. Work on Maryland Special Project No. 1 began under the name Greenbelt on January 13, 1936, and the Roosevelts looked over the finished plans at the White House on April 30, 1936. Families had to pass interviews about their income, their jobs and their willingness to join in community life. The first of them moved in on September 30, 1937.

  • Maryland's first council-manager cityGreenbelt was incorporated on June 1, 1937, as the first city in Maryland to use a council-manager government. Voters elect seven council members at large every two years, in odd-numbered years. The council picks the mayor from its own members, and by custom the job goes to the top vote-getter.
  • A town run by co-opsThe planners wanted residents to own and run things together, and several co-ops still do. Greenbelt Homes Incorporated is the co-op made up of the original houses at the center of town. Residents also run the Greenbelt News Review, the Greenbelt Consumers Coop grocery store and the New Deal Cafe.
  • Art Deco and BauhausThe federal builders used Art Deco, Streamline Moderne and Bauhaus designs. In 1939 the town appeared in a documentary film called The City, and later it served as the first model for the planned communities of Reston, Virginia, and Columbia, Maryland.
  • Opened to all after 1963The government built Greenbelt for White residents only and kept African-Americans out at first. In 1963 a group called the Greenbelt Committee for Fair Housing began working to change that, and by the 2000 census African-Americans made up 41% of the city. In 2021 the city formed a task force to study reparations for its African-American residents.
