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:Virtual Histories Talk: Society’s Cage\, An Interpretive Design Pavilion for BLM
DESCRIPTION:Society’s Cage is a timely interpretive installation on the National Mall in Washington\, DC on view from August 28-September 6. The project was conceived and designed by the architecture firm SmithGroup in partnership with the Architects Foundation in the aftermath of the George Floyd and Breonna Taylor murders as our society reckons with institutional racism and white supremacy. The public installation features a bold interpretive pavilion sculpted to symbolize the historic forces of racialized state violence. The experience educates visitors and functions as a sanctuary to reflect\, record and share personal thoughts. It is conceived in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement as a mechanism for building empathy and healing.\n\n\n  \nThe initial installation coincides with the March on Washington in support of Black Lives\, being held in Washington\, DC on August 28\, 2020\, and is located on the National Mall at 12th Street and Madison Drive NW.\n  \nSociety’s Cage reminds visitors that the murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor are not anomalies\, but rather the latest examples in a 400+ year historic pattern of unmitigated\, unbound\, systemic anti-Blackness in the United States. The installation provides an opportunity to acknowledge and reckon with the severity of the racial biases inherent in the institutional structures of justice and creates a space for collective reflection\, contemplation\, sharing and healing.\n\n  \n\nThe pavilion is a series of bars which are hung to form a cube with a cavernous void that symbolizes our imperfect society and justice system. The void is shaped by historical data and serves as a visual metaphor to represent the primary institutional forces of racism that embody the Black American experience.\n  \nFinancial donations to this Virtual History program will support this project\, and the possibility of bringing it to Baltimore. Additional donations will benefit the Architects Foundation’s Diversity Advancement scholarships.\n\n\n  \nThis 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. \n  \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.

SUMMARY:Virtual Tour of the Bromo Seltzer Art Tower
DESCRIPTION:While few remember the slogan of the Emerson Bromo-Seltzer Company—“If you keep late hours for Society’s sake Bromo-Seltzer will cure that headache”—the iconic Bromo-Seltzer Tower has been a Baltimore landmark since its construction in 1911. At fifteen stories\, the tower made the Bromo-Seltzer factory the tallest building in the city. The tower boasted a four-dial gravity clock that was the largest in the world (bigger\, even\, than London’s Big Ben) and was topped by a 51-foot revolving replica of the blue Bromo-Seltzer bottle\, which was illuminated with 596 lights and could be seen 20 miles away. Due to structural concerns\, the bottle was removed in 1936. The iconic design immediately secured the tower’s spot as a favorite of city residents and visitors alike. The tower was designed by Joseph Evans Sperry and built by Captain Isaac Emerson. \nAlso inside the Tower is the Emerson/Maryland Glass Museum which houses the largest collection of Bromo Seltzer and Maryland Glass bottles in existence. The Museum is on the 15th floor and is on loan from and curated by Ernest Dimler. \nSince 2007 our studios have offered a creative space for a variety of artists\, writers\, photographers\, architects\, jewelers and more from all walks. \nTheir artistic skills gleaned from all over the world and some from our own cherished local prestigious arts institutions as well as self-taught. More than just a space to create\, our artists enjoy interacting with guests to the tower\, showcasing their work in their studios and in the common areas throughout the building. \nAlso inside the Tower is the Emerson/Maryland Glass Museum which houses the largest collection of Bromo Seltzer and Maryland Glass bottles in existence.

SUMMARY:The Baltimore Greenway Trails Network: A Virtual Talk on Connecting Baltimore's Trails
DESCRIPTION:The Baltimore Greenway Trails Coalition seeks to create a 35-mile world-class network of urban trails that link together the diverse neighborhoods\, cultural amenities and outdoor resources that make up the landscape of Baltimore City. The Coalition seeks to fill in the 10 remaining miles to create a connected urban trail network serving all of Baltimore. Incredible opportunities exist to complete this network by repurposing unused railroad corridors\, outdated road networks\, industrial brownfields\, and inaccessible waterfronts into multi-use shared paths which will connect every corner of the city. Participants in this discussion will learn how a coalition of public\, private\, non-profit\, and neighborhood led groups are seeking to turn these barriers in the built environment into community connectors through the Baltimore Greenway Trail Network. \nJoin us to learn how we are building a coalition as diverse as Baltimore to advance this important project and learn how we have been able to engage with AIA’s Urban Design Committee to bring the power of design thinking to this critical project for Baltimore’s future. As a recent study by EY examined\, the potential economic and social benefits of implementing the Greenway will provide a significant economic impact to Baltimore in addition to providing equitable\, healthy\, low-stress access to open space and reliable transportation\, healthy living\, and recreation for people of all ages and abilities in every corner of the city. The neighborhoods within a half mile of the Greenway are composed of 58% African-American residents and have a home ownership rate of 48%\, which represents similar demographic diversity and home ownership rates to Baltimore. The completed trail will bring economic and social benefits to a wide cross section of Baltimore’s population. \nBaltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present a series of 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. \nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Lake Clifton High: The Story of Baltimore's Most Ambitious Modernist School
DESCRIPTION:Lake Clifton was Baltimore’s crown jewel of a massive school building effort. What happened? \nThis presentation will outline the history of Baltimore’s Lake Clifton High School. Completed in 1971 as the crown jewel of a massive school-building effort\, the sprawling and state-of-the-art campus was expected to stimulate racial integration and ease school overcrowding. However\, white students immediately rejected the school and the campus’ huge capacity was never filled. Lake Clifton developed a poor reputation around the city\, and recently closed for good after years of restructuring and physical dilapidation. The campus is likely to soon be acquired and demolished by Morgan State University; thus\, now is an ideal time to examine and commemorate Lake Clifton’s role in a tumultuous period of Baltimore’s history. \nJulian Frost\, grew up in Baltimore and graduated from Baltimore City College in 2019 and is currently a sophomore at Haverford College. He is majoring in the Growth and Structure of Cities program at Haverford’s sister school\, Bryn Mawr. Over the past year Julian has developed a great interest in the history of Baltimore’s built environment\, and is currently thinking about how to direct this interest into productive\, creative\, and potentially professional avenues. Julian started an Instagram page (@baltimorebuilthistory) as a repository for his casual research and findings. \nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:The Preserve the Baltimore Uprising Project: A People's Archive (Virtual Lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Preserve the Baltimore Uprising began as a digital repository designed to preserve and make accessible original content captured and created by individual community members\, grassroots organizations\, and witnesses to the protests that followed the death of Freddie Gray on April 19\, 2015.

In this talk\, Dr. Denise Meringolo\, Professor and Director of Public History at the University of Maryland\, Baltimore County\, describes the processes\, values\, and ethical considerations underlying the creation of Preserve the Baltimore Uprising\, a crowd-sourced digital collection. \n  \nThis program is hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Virtual Talk: Olmsted Brothers Vision for Wyman Park and the Stony Run Stream Valley
DESCRIPTION:The presentation will focus on the Olmsted vision and what remains today! Wyman Park and the Stony Run Stream Valley demonstrate the premier design work of the Olmsted Brothers from 1903 to 1947. The influential landscape architecture firm was established in 1898 by brothers John Charles Olmsted and Frederick Law Olmsted Jr.\, sons of the eminent landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted. The Municipal Art Society hired them to produce the City’s first comprehensive park system plan in 1904\, the Development of Public Grounds for Greater Baltimore Report. The Wyman family had donated land for Johns Hopkins University in 1902 for use as a northern campus and that same year\, the University gave the remainder of the land to the City of Baltimore to serve as a public park. \nIn the 1904 Report\, the Olmsted Brothers identified Wyman Park\, with its old beech trees and bold topography\, as one of the finest single passages of scenery to be so near a large city and advocated for it to become a stream valley reserve and extended north and south Bookending the University to the southeast and fitting into the City grid is the intact Wyman Park Dell\, a 16-acre public park noted for its steep enclosing slopes and a large\, sweeping lower lawn\, fully realized and conceived by the Olmsted Brothers. The presentation will focus on their vision and what remains today from Stony Run’s headwaters at the city’s northern border to where the stream joins the Jones Falls River to the south. \nIn addition to the Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage\, Inc.\, this Virtual History is co-sponsored by the Friends of Maryland’s Olmsted Parks & Landscapes (FMOPL) and the Maryland Society of Landscape Architects. \n  \nPresenters’ Bios: \nSince 1986\, Sandy Sparks\, founding president of the FMOPL\, is strongly committed to the non-profit organization’s involvement in streetscape\, park system and watershed planning\, in addition to its significant archive of Olmsted drawings.

SUMMARY:Mermaids & Promenades: Schaefer and the Cultural Redevelopment of Baltimore (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:Mary Rizzo will examine forgotten moments from Schaefer’s terms as mayor. \nIn the 1970s\, Mayor William Donald Schaefer used arts and culture to sell a new image of Baltimore as quirky and charming to both tourists and business leaders. In this talk\, Mary Rizzo will examine forgotten moments from Schaefer’s terms as mayor\, from the creation of a failed local version of the Oscars\, called “The Don” awards to honor Baltimore’s film business\, to the Baltimore Promenade\, a public art project designed to integrate city neighborhoods through the act of walking. While Schaefer is remembered for large-scale projects like Harborplace and stunts like posing with a mermaid for the opening of the Baltimore aquarium\, his legacy should include his reimagining city government to include arts and culture–for good and ill. \nPresenter Bio: \nMary Rizzo is Assistant Professor of History at Rutgers University-Newark. She works at the intersection of inclusive public history\, digital humanities\, urban studies\, and 20th century U.S. cultural history.

SUMMARY:Trailblazing Architect: Kathleen Sherrill (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:To cap off Women’s History Month\, we are highlighting trailblazers who rose to leadership in the community and the profession. \nAs part of the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the Baltimore Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA)\, we are hosting conversations with trailblazing architects in Baltimore\, discussing their impact on the profession and our communities. To cap off Women’s History Month\, we are featuring Kathleen P. S. Sherrill\, AIA\, NOMA\, NCARB\, LEED AP\, the first (and only) African American to serve as president of AIA Baltimore in 2012 and AIA Maryland in 2016.

In highlighting these projects\, she will call on the needed leadership development of the professional community. She firmly believes that architects should challenge themselves to play a key role in improving and supporting Baltimore’s underserved neighborhoods. Guiding communities to invest in themselves and the next generation through ownership. Raising awareness of what a community can become through revitalization\, not gentrification. Helping residents discover “pride of place” in where they identified as home. It’s critical to the survival of these communities and our city. \nKathleen founded her firm of SP Arch Inc. in 2005 with former partner Mahendra Parekh (who retired in 2008). It offers a broad array of planning\, architectural design\, and landscape architecture services.

She has served as a guest lecturer at MSU and as an adjunct professor teaching Management\, Practice\, and Law. In 2017\, Kathleen helped establish the local chapter of the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA) and served as its first president. She enjoys mentoring aspiring architects through her office and leadership roles. www.spa-corp.com \nIntroducing Kathleen Sherrill is Jillian Storms\, AIA\, who co-chaired the Women in Architecture Committee with her and went on to lead the Early Women of Architecture in Maryland project\, culminating in a traveling exhibit and extensive programming for which she received BAF’s Roger Redden Award and Preservation Maryland’s Volunteer Award.
