This isn't redevelopment. This is tearing down 5 historic rowhomes for a private prayer garden. It would be a different story if they planned on building new housing on the lot, but they're not.
The Archdiocese of Baltimore tore down the 54 unit Rochambeau Apartments for a prayer garden in 2006. The city cannot allow organizations to keep tearing down historic buildings for more "green space" or prayer gardens. Mount Vernon's urban fabric is some of the densest and most historic in the entire city, it makes zero sense to tear even more of it down with no adequate replacement.
