The Baltimore and Potomac (B&P) Tunnel is a railroad tunnel on Amtrak's Northeast Corridor (NEC) line between Penn Station and the West Baltimore MARC Station. The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) and Amtrak are currently conducting an engineering and environmental study to review a range of options to modify or replace the existing tunnel.
Established in December 1849, Western Cemetery is a historic cemetery administered by Beechfield United Methodist Church. In late May 2014, a retaining wall on the southern end of the Western Cemetery collapsed following a severe thunder storm. The collapse dropped a flood of soil and debris down hill and blocked the Gwynns Falls Trail. Continued erosion at the site is dumping sediment into the Gwynns Falls with every storm.
The Old Hamilton Branch Library at 3006 Hamilton Avenue is a historic branch library building constructed in 1920 to serve the community of Hamilton in the developing Harford Road corridor of northeast Baltimore. After a demolition threat in 2012, neighborhood residents and Baltimore Heritage organized to list the property on the National Register of Historic Places and encourage the owner to pursue reuse for the existing building.
