SUMMARY:How Suffragists Built Baltimore’s First Recreation Center
DESCRIPTION:The women’s suffrage movement. Cast-in-place concrete. Katherine Hepburn. What do these three things have in common? The Roosevelt Park Recreation Center\, of course! In this installment of Virtual Histories\, BAF board member Jackson Gilman-Forlini will present his ongoing research into the origins and architecture of Baltimore’s first rec center.\nCompleted in 1911\, the Roosevelt Park Recreation Center was the culmination of a years-long campaign by a tenacious group of Progressive Era reformers who\, despite skeptics\, believed they could improve the lives of working-class people through recreation. This initiative was led by Edith Houghton Hooker\, one of the most influential of Maryland suffragists and later the maternal aunt of actor Katherine Hepburn. The unlikely story behind the center’s creation is matched only by its architecture: an unusually modern design for Baltimore at the time and a wholly forgotten work by local architect J.B. Noel Wyatt.\nDespite modifications over the years\, the building retains a high degree of historical integrity and state of preservation. As a testament to the vision of its founders\, the center has remained an important community focal point for the Hampden neighborhood throughout its century-long history and served as a model for recreation centers throughout the city.\n\nAbout the Presenter\nJackson Gilman-Forlini is the Historic Preservation Officer for the Baltimore City Department of General Services\, where he manages the preservation of city-owned historic landmarks. He holds a B.A. and M.A. in Historic Preservation from Goucher College\, where his thesis dealt with the adaptive reuse of monuments and memorials. He is frequently quoted in The Baltimore Sun and has written for Maryland Historical Magazine and the architecture blog McMansion Hell.

SUMMARY:The Row House as Classical Architecture with Charlie Duff
DESCRIPTION:When we think of classical architecture\, we usually think of ancient temples\, or the cathedrals and palaces that Renaissance architects built in imitation of classical antiquity. We don’t usually think of row houses. \nWe should. In the years between 1600 and about 1850\, the years when the people of the North Atlantic world wanted classical architecture\, they invented the row house and built the first row house cities. \nTo find out how this happened\, and what it looks like\, register now and join us on August 7. \nAbout the Presenter \nCharles Duff is a planner\, teacher\, developer\, and historian. Since 1987\, Mr. Duff has been President of Jubilee Baltimore\, a non-profit group that has built or rebuilt more than 300 buildings in historic Baltimore neighborhoods and is leading the development of the Station North Arts District. He has been President of the Baltimore Architecture Foundation and Chairman of the Board of the Patterson Park Community Development Corporation. A graduate of Amherst College and Harvard University\, he lectures widely and has taught at Johns Hopkins and Morgan State. He co-wrote Then and Now: Baltimore Architecture in 2005 and contributed to The Architecture of Baltimore. His book The North Atlantic Cities has just been published.

SUMMARY:Roadblocks: The Effects of Highways In and Around Druid Hill Park
DESCRIPTION:This program is hosted on Zoom and Facebook Live. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com. If you do not contact us at least 1 hour prior to the start of the program\, we cannot guarantee admittance. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present a series of 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. \nTickets are donation based.

Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nJoin public artist Graham Coreil-Allen and environmental activist Jennifer Kunze as they explore the cultural and environmental impacts of cars in and around Druid Hill Park. Beginning in the 1940s\, car-oriented planning deprived neighboring residents of the public health\, cultural\, and economic benefits of Druid Hill Park. Construction of the Druid Hill Expressway and the Jones Falls Expressway resulted in dangerous five-to-nine-lane-wide highways encapsulating the park\, and blocking access by nearby residents. Further\, this influx of cars brought increased air pollution into the neighborhoods. \nGraham will shed light on The Access Project for Druid Hill Park (TAP Druid Hill)\, his initiative to bring together diverse neighborhood groups to shape the future of transportation around and access to Druid Hill Park. Jennifer will join the conversation from another angle to discuss the environmental and public health impacts of car travel in the city. The transportation sector is responsible for about 1/3 of asthma-causing air pollution\, more than any smokestack\, and Baltimore’s car-centric planning has harmed our air and water. \nAbout the Speakers \nGraham Coreil-Allen is a Baltimore-based public artist making places more inclusive and livable through public art\, placemaking\, and civic engagement. Coreil-Allen collaborates with neighbors to interpret and activate public spaces through public art for pedestrian safety and play\, interactive mapping\, radical walking tours\, and neighborhood advocacy. Whether creating artistic crosswalks\, memorable wayfinding\, interactive sculptures\, or light art installations\, Coreil-Allen caringly infuses public space with play and accessibility. \nJennifer Kunze is the Maryland Program Organizer at Clean Water Action\, where she works to support local campaigns in communities across Maryland. In Baltimore\, her work has focused on banning crude oil train terminals\, understanding the risk of lead in our drinking water supply\, supporting offshore wind development\, advocating for better assistance and prevention for people dealing with sewage backups in their homes\, and more.

SUMMARY:Transforming the Noxzema Factory into the Fox Building: A Virtual Talk with Jessica Damseaux
DESCRIPTION:The Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present a series of 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Join architect Jessica Damseaux to learn about how Alexander Design Studio adapted the historic Noxzema factory into a vibrant mixed-use community of apartments and artist workspaces. \nTickets are donation based. We encourage you to give what you can to support the BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nThe Fox Building is an adaptive reuse of a 20th century Noxzema factory located in Hampden just blocks from the Avenue on 36th Street. Noxzema got its start in Maryland and became famous for its skin cream in little blue glass jars. \nThe building has been transformed into a vibrant mixed-use community of apartments and artist workspaces. Many of the building’s original features have been retained and restored including the original maple wood flooring\, glass block windows\, soaring 15’ factory ceilings\, and massive mushroom shaped concrete columns. The renovation was designed to meet the requirements of both National and State Historic tax credits. \nThe result is a decidedly modern mixed use building that celebrates its industrial origins. It includes 96 loft style and studio apartments with original concrete floors and modern kitchens\, studio artist space and gallery\, and common areas including a theater\, gym\, and pool. \nLearn about its transformation from the architect.

SUMMARY:The Shipwrecks of Curtis Bay with Underwater Archaeologist Dr. Susan Langley
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nDid you know there is a ship graveyard in Baltimore’s Curtis Creek? Join us onsite in front of half-submerged and hidden vessels for a talk by Maryland’s State Underwater Archaeologist\, Dr. Susan Langley. While there are three main collections of shipwrecked vessels in the area\, Dr. Langley will address her exploration of this area\, the largest and most diverse section off of Hawkins Point.  \nIt’s hard to believe\, but less than 60 years ago when steamships plied these waters\, the area around Curtis Bay was known for its strawberry fields and peach orchards. The area’s industrial nature is relatively recent. Still\, for over one hundred years a few groups have been local staples\, including Davison Chemical (now part W.R. Grace)\, the U.S. Coast Guard Yard\, and A. Smith & Sons\, now Smith Shipyard.  \nPlease join us and Dr. Langley in this outdoor talk to discover the rich history of this area and the people who lived nearby\, and of course the half-sunken ships themselves that include vessels built for WWI\, a ship that surprisingly sailed unmanned from North Carolina to Maine and back\, an early example of a ship made from cement\, and some intriguing schooners and tugs for good measure. We hope to see you on Hawkins Point!  \n  \n*There is an on-site parking lot. Please bring your own outdoor chair or blanket! We will have light snacks and drinks. \n  \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Susan Langley lectures internationally on a broad range of subjects including maritime archaeology\, textile technology\, piracy\, and the archaeology and present practices of bees and beekeeping globally. Although her “day-job” is Maryland’s State Underwater Archaeologist directing the Maryland Maritime Archaeology Program for more than 25 of its 30 years\, she is also the beekeeper for the hive at Government House in Annapolis.  Dr. Langley is an adjunct professor at several colleges and universities\, where she teaches underwater archaeology and the history and anthropology of piracy. She also taught maritime archaeology in Thailand for several years through UNESCO. She is a Master SCUBA diver instructor\, judges Maryland’s History Day competition\, and lectures and leads expeditions for Zegrahm Expeditions.

SUMMARY:Virtual Talk: Poole and Hunt to Clipper Mill\, A History of Adaptive Use with Nathan Dennies
DESCRIPTION:The Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present a series of 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Next up is Nathan Dennies with a short history about Clipper Mill in Woodberry\, from the Poole & Hunt machine shop in the 1850s to today\, and its many uses in-between. \nWoodberry was once home to the largest machine shop and iron works in the country. Poole & Hunt thrived alongside the booming textile industry of the Jones Falls Valley. It grew and remained a site of heavy industry for well over a century\, was later adapted by a flourishing arts community\, and after a tragic fire\, was transformed into Clipper Mill: a mixed use development that includes manufacturing\, residences\, design and engineering firms\, fine dining\, and more. \nThis presentation will cover the history of the Poole & Hunt Machine Shop and Iron Works\, including the impressive things they made here\, from the columns of the Capitol Building in Washington DC to contributions to both World War efforts. Discover how this site of heavy industry has changed over its 150 year history to meet the various needs of its users. And learn about the role of historic preservation in adapting historic sites for modern uses.

SUMMARY:Laurel Cemetery Memorial Project Talk at Providence Baptist Church
DESCRIPTION:We are happy to help the Laurel Cemetery Memorial Task Force spread the news about their upcoming black history lecture. The task force is endeavoring to erect a permanent memorial in recognition of the thousands of African Americans interred at Historic Laurel Cemetery\, to ensure the safety and stability of the site into the foreseeable future\, and to educate the public about the rich history of the cemetery and the lives of those buried there. \nLaurel Cemetery was incorporated in 1852 as Baltimore’s first nondenominational cemetery for African Americans. It quickly became a popular place of burial for people across Black Baltimore’s socioeconomic spectrum\, including 230 Black Civil War veterans\, members of the United States Colored Troops (U.S.C.T.) and notables such as Civil Rights activist Reverend Harvey Johnson. \nIn 1958 and after a series of lawsuits failed to prevail in the courts\, Laurel Cemetery was leveled. Today it is the site of the Belair-Edison Crossing Shopping Center\, and home to several businesses. However\, many current patrons and nearby residents have no knowledge of the site’s former purpose and significance. Join us to learn more about the important history of the site and how we can preserve its memory.

SUMMARY:New Light on Hidden Lives: A Talk on Discovering the Histories of Hampton's Enslaved Workers
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nIn 1790\, the Ridgely family’s Hampton Mansion was the largest house in the United States. Who worked to keep this enormous estate running efficiently? Who labored in the surrounding gardens and\, a little farther away\, in the lucrative\, but treacherous iron furnaces? Although the Ridgely family hired indentured servants and free blacks\, the estate depended on slave labor for over 100 years\, ending only when Maryland State law ended the institution in 1864. The Ridgely’s owned over 500 enslaved people during that period.   \nGregory Weidman\, Curator\, Hampton National Historic Site\, will present a lecture based on her recent research as a member of the Hampton Ethnographic Team that worked for three years to uncover and document the lives and families of those enslaved on the Hampton estate. Her presentation will showcase the broad range of historic sources that were used to explore the personal stories of these individuals\, documenting their lives both before and after freedom\, including identifying their family groups and the lives of descendants. We hope you will join us to hear the important stories of the people enslaved at Hampton Mansion.

SUMMARY:Destination Baltimore: A Talk on the Story of Immigration and Opportunity
DESCRIPTION:Event Cancelled \n\nFor more than two centuries and for almost two million people\, Baltimore was the destination that promised hope and opportunity–a new life. In this talk\, historian Jack Burkert will discuss the realities of immigrating to America. Beginning in the 18th century\, and accelerating through the 19th century\, immigrants provided the labor force necessary for Baltimore to become an industrial powerhouse. They built critical infrastructure\, created steel in mills\, and assembled garments in Baltimore’s burgeoning manufacturing world. New arrivals would congregate in neighborhoods where friends and relatives lived and the language was familiar. In these enclaves\, everyday customs from their home countries persisted and flourished.  \nThroughout the 20th century\, new arrivals from other parts of America continued to fuel Baltimore’s growth. The Great Migration and the Hillbilly Migration added to Baltimore’s dynamic heritage. Who were these people? Where were they from? Why did they leave home? We hope you’ll join us to explore these questions and more at this lecture!

SUMMARY:Baltimore’s Civil Rights Heritage: Shaping the National Movement
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore’s airport is named after Civil Rights giant Thurgood Marshall\, and plaques in Fell’s Point show where Frederick Douglass took his stand against slavery and for equality. In addition to these well-known leaders\, dozens of other Baltimoreans committed themselves to struggle for Civil Rights and helped shape The Movement locally and nationally. Reverend Harvey Johnson worked from Union Baptist Church on Druid Hill Avenue to create some of the first Civil Rights organizations in the country as early as the 1880s. Lillie Carroll Jackson\, who headed Baltimore’s branch of the NAACP for 50 years\, pioneered non-violent protest tactics that engaged young people. Clarence Mitchell led the NAACPs efforts to pass ground-breaking Civil Rights legislation in Congress in the 1960s. Baltimore Heritage has spent three years documenting Baltimore’s Civil Rights legacy for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Join the organization’s executive director\, Mr. Johns Hopkins\, to learn more of how Baltimore has shaped the Civil Rights Movement for over 100 years. \n  \nCan’t make this talk?

SUMMARY:Laurel Cemetery Memorial Project Lecture at Israel Baptist Church
DESCRIPTION:We are happy to help the Laurel Cemetery Memorial Task Force spread the news about their upcoming black history lecture. The task force is endeavoring to erect a permanent memorial in recognition of the thousands of African Americans interred at Historic Laurel Cemetery\, to ensure the safety and stability of the site into the foreseeable future\, and to educate the public about the rich history of the cemetery and the lives of those buried there. \nLaurel Cemetery was incorporated in 1852 as Baltimore’s first nondenominational cemetery for African Americans. It quickly became a popular place of burial for people across Black Baltimore’s socioeconomic spectrum\, including 230 Black Civil War veterans\, members of the United States Colored Troops (U.S.C.T.) and notables such as Civil Rights activist Reverend Harvey Johnson. \nIn 1958 and after a series of lawsuits failed to prevail in the courts\, Laurel Cemetery was leveled. Today it is the site of the Belair-Edison Crossing Shopping Center\, and home to several businesses. However\, many current patrons and nearby residents have no knowledge of the site’s former purpose and significance. Join us to learn more about the important history of the site and how we can preserve its memory.

SUMMARY:Baltimore’s Civil Rights Heritage: Shaping the National Movement
DESCRIPTION:Featuring special guest\, Reverend Al Hathaway from Union Baptist Church! \nBaltimore’s airport is named after Civil Rights giant Thurgood Marshall\, and plaques in Fell’s Point show where Frederick Douglass took his stand against slavery and for equality. In addition to these well-known leaders\, dozens of other Baltimoreans committed themselves to struggle for Civil Rights and helped shape The Movement locally and nationally. Reverend Harvey Johnson worked from Union Baptist Church on Druid Hill Avenue to create some of the first Civil Rights organizations in the country as early as the 1880s. Lillie Carroll Jackson\, who headed Baltimore’s branch of the NAACP for 50 years\, pioneered non-violent protest tactics that engaged young people. Clarence Mitchell led the NAACPs efforts to pass ground-breaking Civil Rights legislation in Congress in the 1960s. Baltimore Heritage has spent three years documenting Baltimore’s Civil Rights legacy for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Join the organization’s executive director\, Mr. Johns Hopkins\, to learn more of how Baltimore has shaped the Civil Rights Movement for over 100 years. \nCan’t make this talk? Catch the same one at two other Pratt Library branches: Brooklyn (February 20) and Southeast (February 25)
