SUMMARY:Camden Yards: Greatest Ballpark in America (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Oriole Park at Camden Yards consistently ranks among the top ballparks in the world\, and has had a profound influence on ballpark design since it opened in 1992. The design broke away from the idea that stadiums should be on the outskirts of cities surrounded by massive parking lots. Instead\, Camden Yards was placed near the heart of Downtown and designed to complement its historic surroundings and incorporates the site of Camden Station with the 1905 B&O Warehouse. Camden Yards ushered in the trend for retro ballpark design and demonstrated that the best stadiums are those that are integrated into the urban fabric of the city. \nCamden Yards made it to the semifinals of BAF’s Architecture Madness tournament\, which included 64 exceptional Baltimore buildings built between 1870 and today\, hosted in celebration of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary. We’ll explore what makes Camden Yards one of the top ballparks in the world. \n  \nAbout the Speaker:  \nJanet Marie Smith is best known in baseball for her work on Oriole Park at Camden Yards\, which set the standard for a new wave of ballparks after its opening in 1992. Smith worked for the Orioles from 1989-94 as vice president of planning and development during the design and construction of the park. She later re-joined the club from 2009-12 to direct renovations and expansion of the Orioles’ spring training facility in Sarasota\, FL.\, and upgrades to Camden Yards.From 2002-2009\, Smith served as senior vice president of planning and development for the Boston Red Sox\, overseeing the preservation and expansion of Fenway Park. Smith was president of Turner Sports and Entertainment Development and vice president of planning and development for the Atlanta Braves from 1994-2000\, when she helped transform the 1996 Olympic Stadium into Turner Field and she oversaw the development of the Philips Arena\, then home to the NBA Hawks and NHL Thrashers. \nAbout this Event:\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:The History and Award Winning Renovation of the Pratt Central Library (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Sandra Vicchio and Jillian Storms discuss the design of the Pratt Central Library\, one of Baltimore’s most beloved buildings. \nThe Pratt Central Library achieved second place in BAF’s Architecture Madness tournament of Baltimore’s best buildings built between 1870 and today and hosted in celebration of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary. In today’s Virtual History\, we’ll explore what makes this library so special and how it served as a national model for libraries that followed. \nIn 1882\, Enoch Pratt gave a whopping $1 million gift to Baltimore City to launch the nation’s first free library system\, proclaiming\, “My library shall be for all\, rich and poor without distinction of race or color…” This welcoming vision was echoed in the 1929 design of the system’s new central branch\, starting with its street-level main entrance on Cathedral Street\, going against the grain of architectural design for grand civic institutions at the time. Architect Clyde N. Friz hoped to give the library “a dignity characterized by friendliness rather than aloofness” avoiding the old-fashioned institutional character of past libraries. When Baltimore’s Central Library opened on Cathedral Street in 1933\, it displayed its featured content in large bay windows along its street facade enticing all to enter\, much like department stores on nearby Howard Street. \nToday\, the Central Library serves more than half a million people a year and recently received a $115 million\, three-year renovation. Its exterior and interiors were gorgeously restored and fully transformed for the digital age with up-to-date systems and technology masterfully integrated into the historic fabric. Dropped ceilings were removed to reveal fabulous stenciling\, decorative molding damaged in prior renovations was restored by artisans\, and historically appropriate new lighting was installed to make the rooms feel light and airy. The results are stunning. \nCome join us as we hear from our two presenters about this award-winning library\, inviting and comfortable for all who enter\, and one that will fill you with civic pride. Gordon Krabbe\, Chief Operating Officer of the Enoch Pratt Free Library\, will be introducing our presenters. \nAbout the Presenters: \nJillian Storms\, AIA\, has done extensive architectural research on numerous architects who practiced in Maryland\, including Clyde N. Friz\, AIA\, who holds the first architectural licence issued by the State of Maryland. She is a former President of the BAF and now serves as co-chair of its research committee\, the Dead Architects’ Society. She serves as a capital programs manager at the School Facilities Branch of the Maryland State Department of Education. \nSandra Parsons Vicchio\, AIA\, NCARB\, LEED AP\, is founding principal of Sandra Vicchio & Associates\, LLC\, with more than 30 years of experience in programming\, planning\, architecture\, and design. Her portfolio includes historic preservation\, renovation\, and new construction encompassing laboratory\, office\, academic\, administrative\, visitor center\, library\, and museum spaces. She co-authored the 2015 book The Living Library: An Intellectual Ecosystem and served as consulting architect on the Pratt Central Library renovation project team\, along with lead architects\, Beyer Blinder Belle\, and managing architects\, Ayers Saint Gross. \n\nAbout this event\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Designs on Victory: Olmsted-Inspired Garden City Plans for Historic Dundalk (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Amy Menzer discusses the design and development of WWI Era Historic Dundalk! \nThe Bethlehem Steel Mill at Sparrows Point launched an effort to create a Garden City-style town in 1917 just before the US entered WWI. At the same time\, the Federal Government began housing production for war workers. Frederick Law Olmsted\, Jr. (FLO Jr.) headed the Town Planning division of the new United States Housing Corporation. Several colleagues in the nascent profession of city planning who had worked with FLO Jr. on Roland Park and Forest Hills Gardens were all directly involved in designing Dundalk\, including Baltimore architect Edward Palmer\, Roland Park Company leader Edward Bouton\, and architects Grosvenor Atterbury and Charles Wellford Leavitt. Their plans were inspired by their designs for more affluent areas\, including curvilinear streets\, separation of uses\, green spaces\, and restrictive covenants. We will explore how these plans created a new community for workers and managers\, but was segregated by race. \nPresenters \nAmy E. Menzer is executive director of Dundalk Renaissance\, a 20 year-old non-profit community development organization\, and is deeply interested in planning history and neighborhood change. She also serves as a Board member of the Friends of Maryland’s Olmsted Parks and Landscapes. She previously worked for Citizens Planning and Housing Association on housing and transportation advocacy\, and has served as President of the Community Development Network of Maryland\, NeighborSpace Baltimore County\, the Patterson Park Neighborhood Association\, and the Transit Riders League of Metropolitan Baltimore. She holds a Ph.D in Human Geography from Johns Hopkins University. \nJoining this presentation is Meg Fairfax Fielding\, past president of BAF\, and member of BAF’s Dead Architects’ Society. By day\, Meg is the head of the History of Maryland Medicine at MedChi\, which was founded in 1799\, but on weekends\, loves to explore Baltimore and the surrounding areas and take deep dives into the historical contributing architects\, such as Palmer & Lamdin. Follow her on Instagram at PigtownDesign. \n\nAbout this event\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com.

SUMMARY:The Church of the Redeemer: Baltimore's Beloved Modernist Church (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Mark Schroeder will discuss the history\, design\, and lasting impact of the church\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Church of the Redeemer made it to the semifinals of BAF’s Architecture Madness tournament\, which included 64 exceptional Baltimore buildings built between 1870 and today\, hosted in celebration of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary. We’ll explore what makes this modernist church so beloved by Baltimoreans. \nThe Church of the Redeemer was built in 1958 and designed by architect Pietro Belluschi in collaboration with RTKL. It is a Mid-Century Modern\, re-interpretive addition to the original 1856 church by R. Snowden Andrews (1830-1903). Its sophisticated design integrates original stone and like materials to create a modern spirituality of the time. \nPeitro Belluschi (1899-1994) was born in Italy\, and moved to Portland\, Oregon in the 1920’s. His churches and residences reflected a Pacific Northwest vernacular of wood and stone\, while his seminal commercial work was more modern in its materials vocabulary. We will tour the 1856 historic chapel\, and the 1958 church and supporting administration wing and will view some of the original drawings and documentation of the Belluschi work. \n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:A Spy in the Neighborhood of Charles Village (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Alger Hiss\, a native Baltimorean\, was a government official accused of spying for the Soviet Union In one of the most spectacular Cold War era trials in the U.S.\, Hiss was convicted of perjury. Hiss’s accuser was Whittaker Chambers\, a confessed Communist Spy turned Conservative Republican. \nRegardless of what conclusions the reader reaches from the mountain of evidence and the books that have been written about the Alger Hiss case\, much of the narrative by Whittaker Chambers may have been composed in a modest house in Charles Village\, 2610 St. Paul Street\, a typical example of detached domestic architecture in Baltimore often overlooked by architectural historians. \nPresenting is Ed Papenfuse\, retired Maryland State Archivist and Chair of the Baltimore City Historical Society Board. Ed is also a member of the BAF Dead Architects Society where he has been working with the committee on establishing a Wiki for Maryland’s architectural history. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Baltimore’s Vernacular Churches (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Along with its famous\, architecturally distinguished churches\, Baltimore retains many lesser-known but architecturally and socially interesting church buildings. Some are modest\, simple structures\, some are grander\, and probably all of them have been ignored when we think about Baltimore’s architectural heritage. If we stop to look at them\, however\, we see the evidence of Baltimore’s spatial and population growth in the years before the Civil War. They tell a tale of geographic and social mobility\, changing tastes\, and even theological change. You can see all this\, if you know what you’re looking at. \nMichael S. Franch\, Ph.D.\, is a historian\, board member and past president of the Baltimore City Historical Society\, He is especially interested in Baltimore urban growth and religious community in the early 19th century. \nAbout this event\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Restoring the Hawley-Hutzler House (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:In 2019\, the grand Victorian 8\,000 square foot Hawley-Hutzler Mansion went on the market.

SUMMARY:Disrupting Lines: The Career and Legacy of Victorine Adams (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Prior to the processing of her archival collection at Morgan State University\, Victorine Adams remained obscured behind the imposing notoriety of her husband\, William “Little Willie” Adams. Yet she led a remarkable life and was the first African American woman elected to the Baltimore City Council in 1967. Adams also created two organizations\, participated in philanthropic endeavors\, mentored young women and maintained an impeccable reputation and social life. She was a self-assured woman aware of the distortion that surrounded her race\, gender and class in Baltimore. Join Morgan State’s University Archivist Dr. Ida E. Jones to see how Victorine Adams’ “compassionate conviction” compelled her to organize\, raise her voice and run for public office in service to the masses of underserved people in her hometown of Baltimore. \nIda E. Jones is an American historian and author who is the University Archivist at Morgan State University\, the first archivist in the university’s history. Her work has focused on DC and Baltimore-area African American history\, letting the voices and lived experiences of people tell their stories.

SUMMARY:Rash Field: A Park for All of Baltimore (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Shaping public space comes with a special responsibility. Architects\, planners\, and designers must examine the impacts—both positive and negative—of public improvements on all members of a community and be intentional about how their efforts can create better experiences for all\, today and tomorrow. \nWith a commitment to crafting equitable and collaboratively-designed projects\, Mahan Rykiel Associates approached the redesign of Rash Field Park with intention and sensitivity. By first examining the context and histories around Baltimore’s Rash Field Park and the surrounding Inner Harbor\, then deploying a many-layered engagement strategy that prioritized outreach to underserved and underrepresented communities\, Mahan Rykiel Associates was able to set the stage for shaping Rash Field as a public space for all people—a park that could be enjoyed by visitors\, but\, first and foremost\, a park that would be cherished\, celebrated\, and enjoyed by the neighbors and residents of Baltimore City. \nSince its conceptualization in the Inner Harbor 2.0 masterplan\, Rash Field has been through multiple design iterations—each pushing the boundaries\, vision\, and ambitions for how Rash Field could be transformed into an amenity-packed\, engaging\, and activated space. Within its 3 acres\, the revitalized Rash Field features an Adventure Playground\, Nature Playground\, Skateboard Park\, Shade Lawn\, a Pavilion (designed by Gensler)\, and an ‘Instagramable’ overlook facing Baltimore’s Inner Harbor. \n\nAbout this event\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:The Shipwrecks of Curtis Bay (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Did you know there is a ship graveyard in Baltimore’s Curtis Creek? Join us for a talk by Maryland’s State Underwater Archaeologist\, Dr. Susan Langley\, to discover the submerged and hidden vessels off of Hawkins Point! Although known mostly as the home of the U.S. Coast Guard since 1897\, the bustling waterfront industries of Curtis Bay and Creek have long included shipyards and other maritime businesses. So it’s not unusual that these waters contain a disproportionate number of scrapped and abandoned vessels. What is surprising is the nature and histories of many of these watercraft\, which include mid-19th century schooners to the last passenger steamers operating as recently as 1963. \n  \nAbout the Presenter: \nDr. 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. \n  \nAbout this event \n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Baltimore Deco: Architectural Optimism in the Interwar Years (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:This talk will consider how an international design movement\, Art Deco\, found its way into Baltimore during the 1920s and ’30s. Fueled by a robust manufacturing sector\, the city became fertile ground for a wide-ranging architecture that mixed freely with the prevailing design trends of the day (albeit leaning toward the traditional); an important representative of America’s major industrial cities in the interwar years. Lesser-known examples of Baltimore Deco will be shared\, and the talk will also highlight a few optimistic building projects undertaken in the midst of the Great Depression. \n  \nAbout the Presenter: \nMelissa Blair is a history professor at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) and studies the history of architecture\, landscapes\, and material culture. She is co-author with Richard Striner of Washington and Baltimore Art Deco: A Design History of Neighboring Cities (Johns Hopkins University Press\, 2014). Prior to joining the Department of History\, she worked for more than 15 years as an architectural historian and historic preservationist for a variety of public\, private\, and nonprofit organizations. \n  \nAbout This Event:  \nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Remembering Laurel Cemetery
DESCRIPTION:Laurel 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 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 Dr. Isaac Shearn of the Laurel Cemetery Memorial Project to learn more about the important history of the site and how we can preserve its memory. \n  \nAbout Our Presenter \nIsaac Shearn earned his PhD in 2014 at the University of Florida and is an adjunct professor at the Community College of Baltimore County\, University of Baltimore\, and Coppin State University. His research is on the archaeology and ethnohistory of the Caribbean and South America\, with a focus on public archaeology\, developing inclusive and participatory methods. His recent efforts have been oriented toward integrating three-dimensional photogrammetric mapping techniques with more traditional archaeological methods. \n  \nAbout This Event \nThis program is hosted on Zoom.
