SUMMARY:Federal Hill Beyond the Views: A Monumental City Tour
DESCRIPTION:Baltimoreans celebrated atop Federal Hill when we ratified the U.S. Constitution. We used it to defend the city from the British in the War of 1812 and to make sure we stayed in the Union in the Civil War. We have even tunnelled under it to quarry minerals. Join us on a tour of Federal Hill and the neighborhood around it to learn about this waterfront community’s rich history\, including stops at one of the last wooden houses in the city\, the oldest house in Federal Hill\, and the wonderful alley houses along Churchill Street.   \nDue to Covid precautions\, we are limiting space more than usual. All participants will be required to wear face masks and socially distance during the tour.\n \nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Federal Hill\, Downtown\, and Ridgely’s Delight on the first three Sundays of each month from May through November\, except holiday weekends.

SUMMARY:Old St. Paul’s Cemetery Tour: A Peek Behind the Stone Walls
DESCRIPTION:Old St. Paul’s Cemetery’s list of the interred reads like the Who’s Who of the War of 1812 – Samuel Chase\, George Armistead\, John Eager Howard to name a few. Even Francis Scott Key spent part of his afterlife in the cemetery buried in the Howard crypt until he was moved to Frederick. Founded around 1799\, Old St. Paul’s is one of the oldest cemeteries in Baltimore City and is on the registry of National Historic Places. Not regularly open to the public\, come with us to peek behind its large stone walls and see the final resting places of those who helped shape this city.  \nDue to Covid precautions\, we are limiting space more than usual. All participants will be required to wear face masks and socially distance during the tour.

SUMMARY:The Maryland Zoo's Main Valley: A Walk Through History
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special walking tour of the Maryland Zoo’s newly reopened historic Main Valley. Kirby Fowler\, president of the Maryland Zoo\, and Tony Azola\, the restoration contractor who helped restore the Main Valley\, will lead us as we explore the Zoo’s oldest section\, which dates back to the 19th century. The Main Valley was closed to the public in 2004 and it served as the “back of house” for employees\, while the antiquated cages became overgrown with vines and trees. The Zoo has just reopened the Main Valley as a walking path for guests\, providing unique opportunities to learn more about the history of the Zoo and several of its historic landmarks\, including iron-barred cages and other structures built when the Rogers Mansion was still a private residence. We hope you’ll join us to experience a walk through the past\, which will showcase how far zoological organizations have come from menageries of exotic creatures to conservation centers for endangered species!  \nDue to Covid precautions\, we are limiting space more than usual. All participants will be required to wear face masks and socially distance during the tour.

SUMMARY:Out of the Ashes: The Great Baltimore Fire of 1904
DESCRIPTION:In February 1904\, Baltimore’s chief firefighter cabled Washington DC: “Desperate fire here. Must have help at once!” A tremendous fire was sweeping through downtown and showed little signs of stopping. Not until 5:00 p.m. the next day was the fire brought under control. Overall\, it destroyed 1500 buildings\, left 35\,000 people unemployed\, and damaged $150 million of property. Resilient Baltimore rebounded quickly\, erecting new buildings\, widening streets\, and improving fire safety designs. Rising out of the ashes\, Baltimore used the fire to rethink the city\, and the downtown we know today is shaped largely by this incident. Join us on this walking tour as we see what 2500 degrees Fahrenheit heat can do to blocks of solid stone\, learn how the fire shaped architecture locally and across the country\, and hear the tale of one of the fire’s great heroes: Goliath the horse.  \n  \nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Downtown\, Ridgely’s Delight\, Mount Vernon and Federal Hill on the first four Sundays of each month from April through November\, except holiday weekends.

SUMMARY:Out of the Ashes: The Great Baltimore Fire of 1904
DESCRIPTION:In February 1904\, Baltimore’s chief firefighter cabled Washington DC: “Desperate fire here. Must have help at once!” A tremendous fire was sweeping through downtown and showed little signs of stopping. Not until 5:00 p.m. the next day was the fire brought under control. Overall\, it destroyed 1500 buildings\, left 35\,000 people unemployed\, and damaged $150 million of property. Resilient Baltimore rebounded quickly\, erecting new buildings\, widening streets\, and improving fire safety designs. Rising out of the ashes\, Baltimore used the fire to rethink the city\, and the downtown we know today is shaped largely by this incident. Join us on this walking tour as we see what 2500 degrees Fahrenheit heat can do to blocks of solid stone\, learn how the fire shaped architecture locally and across the country\, and hear the tale of one of the fire’s great heroes: Goliath the horse. \n\nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Downtown\, Ridgely’s Delight\, Mount Vernon and Federal Hill on the first four Sundays of each month from April through November\, except holiday weekends.
