It is now widely accepted that the growth of galaxies and their central supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are linked. Observations and CDM theories of large scale structures indicate that galaxy growth is accelerated in high-density environments, and the highest density structures underwent their most vigorous star formation at z > 2--3. To study the corresponding growth of SMBHs in such high-density environments, we have conducted a deep 400 ks Chandra survey covering the SSA22 protocluster at z=3.09: the Chandra Deep Protocluster Survey. The protocluster itself contains a factor of 6 overdensity in galaxies (i.e., LBGs and LAEs) and is predicted to collapse into a z=0 cluster resembling a rich local cluster (e.g., Coma). I will report on the current status of the Chandra Deep Protocluster Survey and will highlight recent work that illustrates how the growth of galaxies and SMBHs depends on local environment in the z = 3 Universe.
