The Birckhead-Bond house, a secluded and long-vacant mansion on 2 acres in Reservoir Hill, will become an international-inspired food hall with a mini gourmet grocer, coffee shop, bakery & speakeasy bar and restaurant, among other vendors (via @lmirabella) https://t.co/DFDyl0f1FS
I want to post about politics, but in deference to @RevGrey I will post some Baltimore History: The Emersonian apartment building was built by Capt. Isaac Emerson of Bromo-Seltzer fame to block his ex-wife's view of Druid Lake as she resided in the adjacent Emerson Mansion. pic.twitter.com/7UXBp1jnTE
My first apartment was only a block away from this magnificent house. Eutaw Place, in its prime, must have been really elegant, It has mansions and a large median strip.
The Hawley-Hutzler House is located at 1801 Eutaw Place.
“It was one of the grandest houses there is on Eutaw." And now it could be yours for $885,000.
It also includes bookstores. I highly recommend Charm City Books which is in my neighborhood. I was glad to read that Madison Smartt Bell is fond of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s story “Babylon Revisited” which is one of my favorites.
There’s a long line of government employees in Baltimore who have been accused or convicted of misconduct. Mayor Catherine Pugh and Mayor Sheila Dixon had to resign because of their misdeeds. City Council President Orlinsky accepted a bribe.
The Baltimore public defender’s office is calling for a new review of convictions involving corrupt police officers after a staggering report raised new allegations about the scandal-plagued Gun Trace Task Force. https://t.co/g9Q9dPKTMB
In 2000, Walter Orlinsky was seeking a pardon for the crimes he committed as Baltimore City Council President.
FBI files are delightfully gossipy. Here, the FBI recorded the complaints about Walter Orlinsky's tenure as a director of the Homeland Southway Condominium Association. pic.twitter.com/3CL5tX5kdu
The Copycat Building – see the Instagram posts above and below about a current tenant
I spent some time at the CopyCat over the past few months. The iconic Baltimore building might look the same from the outside, but inside things are changing. The last vestige of the city's warehouse arts scene is on a knife's edge. https://t.co/pVlTg2Ycw7
