Growing Business That Ignite A Community

Our Mission

is to build a space that enables and builds community around WOC as they turn their ideas into economic power, freedom, and realized dreams. 


Let's Cut to the Chase

The 3rd is opening a revolutionary space in a revolutionary town. 
Columbia, MD, the nation's first planned community, was built upon James Rouse's vision for inclusion and equality.  He saw a community, positioned between two powerful American cities, Baltimore, MD and Washington, DC.  that brought the tenants of diversity and inclusion to a city-like suburb.  His vision was big. His execution was bigger.  Our work aligns with this legacy. 

 

The 3rd is bringing a mixed-use community hub that provides a gathering place for the entire community while showcasing and incubating WOC owned businesses. Nothing but big vision and big execution over here.
