The projects, including towers that would be Baltimore's tallest, would swell the tax base and potentially attract new - and well-heeled - city dwellers. But the housing slump has dulled the market for new condominiums and houses, and the subsequent credit crunch has made financing difficult to obtain.

As a result, at least 11 major projects have been recast or are in limbo, waiting out the market. At the Inner Harbor, two sites planned for condominium and hotel skyscrapers are still parking lots. In Charles Village, the neighborhood's first proposed luxury condo building is on hold and likely to switch to apartments. And in Greektown, plans for 1,000 new residences on a gritty lot have been drastically scaled back.

It's full steam ahead for some large projects, though, including the Westport redevelopment.
