Renovations planned for 27 city schools

The 21st Century School Buildings Plan is a program that will upgrade and modernize aging public schools in Baltimore City. The plan was developed in 2010. Phase 1 of the project is currently underway and is focusing on 27 schools throughout the city.

One site includes both Patterson High School and Claremont Middle/High School at 100 Kane St.

Design development for the location is currently in progress.

Feasibility studies have reported that the building is out-of-date and needs major improvements. Patterson Park High and the Claremont building host a variety of educational programs for students with disabilities, along with a standard curriculum. Major renovations and space reduction were suggested to better suit these programs.

Stokes is the delegate for the 12th district. He also acts as the chair of the Taxation, Finance and Economic Development Committee and the vice chair of the Education and Executive Appointments committees.

“I do this because Baltimore needs honest leadership that will take a new direction. The problems we face – too few jobs, too much crime, high taxes, and far too many under performing schools – are old problems that we have been dealing with in old ways without success,” states his campaign website.

His campaign statement reports that as mayor Stokes will work to reduce government waste and use the saved tax dollars towards creating jobs, reducing crime, and improving schools.

“We must all rise together and we must all understand the cost of failure. It is the lives of our young people—if we fail to turn this City around, we fail them. The future of Baltimore and the future of our children are inseparable,” said Stokes.

Pugh and Stokes have both run for mayor before. Pugh lost to Rawlings-Blake in 2011 and Stokes lost to Martin O’Malley in 1999.

While Pugh’s and Stokes’ announcements were predicted, the third contender was more unexpected.

Mike Maraziti, the owner of the Fell’s Point restaurant One-Eyed Mike’s, is also running

Maraziti is the president of the Fell’s Point Main Street Association. He believes that his experience as a business owner has given him a new perspective into what the city needs. He also said that since he hasn’t previously been involved in politics, he doesn’t owe any favors and can work on what’s best for the city.

Pugh, Stokes, and Maraziti join former mayor Shiela Dixon in next year’s race for mayor.

Three contenders enter race for mayor

The 2016 race for mayor has gotten more competitive. Last week, State Senator Catherine Pugh and City Councilman Carl Stokes announced their candidacy for mayor.

Pugh was elected to the House of Delegates in 2005 and became senator in 2007, where she now serves as the senate’s majority leader.

“The message has been the same. The city needs leadership that will get everyone on the same page, where we solve our problems together lifting the least of us so that we all are lifted.” Reducing violence and crime in the city is among her priorities including lighting the neighborhoods to make Baltimore a safer and more walkable city. “Sharing wealth and building economic strategies that will create a unity of initiatives that will lead to greater outcomes in our neighborhoods, business profit and not profit (sic) is essential,” said Pugh.

Along with reducing crime and violence, Pugh said she will also focus on improving schools, creating more green space, and developing work opportunities for ex-offenders.

For more information on Pugh’s platform, visit www.catherinepugh.com.

“Everything I have experienced to this point, being a banker, business developer, business owner, publisher, professor, Dean and Director of Strayer Business College-Baltimore, Special Editor to the Sunpapers, Neighborhood Crime Prevention Director under William Donald Schaefer, city council person, legislator and National President of the Black Caucus of State Legislators along with the numerous public service boards I have served on, and with my failures, successes, wins and losses have prepared me to be Baltimore’s mayor,” she said.

Stokes announced his run on his website, carlstokes2016.com.

by gianna DeCarlo [email protected]

On Friday, September 11, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake announced she will not run for re-election in 2016.

“I realized that every moment that I spent planning for a campaign or a re-election was a time that I was taking away from my current responsibilities to the city. The last thing I want is for every one of the decisions that I make moving forward — at a time when the city needs me the most — to be questioned in the context of a political campaign,” said Rawlings-Blake at the press conference. “I knew that I needed to spend time, the remaining 15 months of my term, focused on the city’s future and not my own.”

She said she wants the city to focus on recovering from April’s unrest and to prepare for the trials of the six police officers charged for the death of Freddie Gray.

The announcement came a day after a judge ruled that the trials will take place in Baltimore and a few days after the city gave Gray’s family a $6 million settlement.

According to aides, Rawlings-Blake made the decision a few days ago, but she has been considering not running for months.

Rawlings-Blake became mayor in 2010 when Sheila Dixon resigned. She won reelection in 2011.

She currently has 15 months left in office. “I am so grateful for the opportunity I

have had to serve. I am grateful to be a part of what I know is the renaissance of an amazing city,” said Rawlings-Blake.

Rawlings-Blake won’t seekreelection

Tucker said the BJ’s will be open on November 15 and the adjacent gas station will be open a month before. Next to the BJ’s will be a Taco Bell which is expected to be completed 6 months after BJ’s opening.

Richard Manekin, a partner of Work Shop said that while they are early in the development process, feedback from neighbors is encouraged.

“What we’re looking for is feedback and support on the project. We’ll come back after we work with planning and the councilman [Jim Kraft] and figure out the zoning,” said Manekin.

At this, a resident who lives on Toone St. whose backyard would face the new building asked what perimeters would be put in place.

“We’re more than happy to work with the public to figure out buffers between the houses and whether it makes sense to have gates or fences there or something that closes off the backyards,” said Schmidt.

He added that they will landscape the surrounding areas, possibly creating a garden space for neighbors.

The earliest estimated time construction could start is Fall of 2016. It will take around 18-24 months to be completed with an end date of Fall 2018.

Developers often meet with the Economic Development Committee before going to the Urban Design & Architecture Review Panel for feedback and to gauge reactions on a project.

Work Shop said they will keep the community updated on the project’s progress.

For more information on Work Shop Development and it’s other projects, visit www.workshopdev.com/index.html.

On Monday, local developers Work Shop Development met with the Canton Community Association’s Economic Development Committee to discuss their plans for a new complex at 3400 Boston St.

The building is currently Kauffman Electric and has been since 1963.

“We’re looking to do a commercial and apartment complex here,” said Neil Tucker of Work Shop.

The 8-story building would have over 13,000 square feet of commercial space. It would have approximately 236 apartment units, most of which would be one bedroom.

“It’s important that we keep the pattern that’s been established in Brewer’s Hill with the Panera Bread and the Broom Factory on Boston. The building is going to be keeping with the neighborhood, which is very simple and industrial. What you see in the neighboring buildings, you’re going to see here. We’re not going to step out and try to do something ultra-modern,” said Doug Schmidt, the principal of the development team.

The building will have a one level underground parking lot with 294 parking spaces, about 1.2 spots per unit. There will also be 22 parking spaces in an above-ground lot.

Schmidt said the location was perfect for the customer base.

“We liked the fact that directly north of us we have some townhomes and get a feel of the neighborhood. The goal was to push the residential interests and to leave room in the front for retail,” said Tucker.

Work Shop Development oversaw the construction of the Shops at Canton Crossing and the BJ’s Wholesale also on O’Donnell St.

THEN:The first known resident of what is now Patterson Park was

Quinton Parker in 1669. At that time, it was possible to navigate a

small boat up Harris Creek from the Patapsco River right into

Patterson Park. In 1708 the land was conveyed to Nicholas Rogers,

and in 1792 William Patterson purchased the 200 acre Harris Creek

Rogers estate at auction for $8,500.

Patterson Park HistoryOn Hampstead Hill, the ridge where the

Pagoda now stands, Baltimoreans rallied on September 12, 1814 to

protect the city from the threat of a British invasion. By water,

British troops entered the Patapsco River and bombarded Fort

McHenry. By land, they amassed forces at North Point. As they

marched on to Baltimore and looked up to Hampstead Hill they

saw Rodger’s Bastion – including 100 cannons and 20,000 troops.

This sight led the British to return to their ships and leave the Port

of Baltimore.

With its historic significance and fine view of the harbor, the area

became a popular place for citizens to stroll and picnic. In 1827, in

an effort to re-create the public walks that he had seen in Europe,

William Patterson offered the mayor of Baltimore six acres of land

on the hill. In 1850, the city purchased another 29 acres from

Patterson’s heirs and on the evening of July 13, 1853, 20,000

citizens witnessed the park’s formal introduction as a public space.

Eventually, the city purchased an additional 30 acres of land and

began planning for park structures fashioned after those in Central

Park. However, on the eve of the Civil War in 1861, all parks and

open spaces were earmarked for troop occupation. Camp Washburn

was established on Hampstead Hill and later a hospital – Camp

Patterson Park – was set up. Once again, Hampstead Hill was a

strategic military lookout and fortification.

When the hospital was dismantled in 1864, the park was in

deplorable condition. George A. Frederick was hired to build

structural elements within the park, enhancing the park’s beauty by

introducing the Victorian character that remains today.

The Pagoda, originally known as the Observation Tower, was

designed in 1890 by Charles H. Latrobe, then Superintendent of

Parks. In 1905, Baltimore enlisted the help of the famous Olmsteds,

who created plans for a recreational design for the eastern section

of the park, believing that only through its use would the park

remain healthy and vital. Public pools, sports fields, and playgrounds

became more important to a growing urban population.

NOW:Historic Patterson Park will be a thriving and welcoming urban

green space. It will stand as an inspiring example of how people can

come together and better their community. It will reflect the

diversity of Baltimore neighborhoods and be inclusive where

everyone feels welcome and safe. Patterson Park will be an oasis

from city streets and our busy lives. It will be a place that expands

the human spirit through a connection with the earth and serve as a

reminder of our responsibility to be caretakers of the world in which

we live. Whether playing a game of softball with friends or taking

quiet time to read a book, park users will have a place for

rejuvenation through exercise and rest. Our park will be a cherished

gathering place for the community—where people meet to discuss

the news or listen to music, families take time for a picnic, and

children create memories that last a lifetime.

THEN & NOW: Patterson Park

In 1950 Patterson Park was just as popular a site for local football leagues and rec clubs as it is today.

Community leaders honored on 9/11by GIANNA DECARLO [email protected]

“Tom was a lone city council holdout when the highway plan was being planned in the 60s and now in his 80s and recently served as head of the Liquor Board. Many locals credit Tom for saving Fell’s Point, though Barbara Mikulski received the fame,” said Lisicky. He referenced the proposed demolition of Fell’s Point to turn the area into a highway and how Ward was a strong opponent of the idea. Ward is a retired lawyer and served as councilman for the 2nd district,

“He made a huge difference in how businesses conduct themselves in regard to liquor licenses,” said Joanne Masopust, the president of the Fell’s Point Community Association.

Ward was not at the ceremony because he was visiting Wyoming. The award will be presented to him in person at a later time.

After the news broke those 14 years ago, residents of the neighborhood gathered at the square in Fell’s Point to comfort each other and come together in the wake of such tragedy. This is how the yearly tradition was born.

This year’s winners were added to a plaque that will be displayed at the Fell’s Point Visitor Center at 1724 Thames St.

“I want to remind everybody to keep people in mind this year. It’s been a big year for Baltimore and will probably continue to be a big year. It’s been very emotional. We are glad to see the community back together and the strong backbone of the city,” concluded Lisicky.

On the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, Fell’s Point residents gathered at Broadway Square to honor the neighbors who have helped make the city a better place.

Michael Lisicky and Jack Trautwein are Fell’s Point Towne Criers. Dressed in traditional garments from the 1800s and a tricorner hats, they presented the awards.

Barbara Cromwell won the Fell’s Point 2015 Selfless Community Service Award.

“Barbara has been a fixture with the Preservation Society, especially by organizing tours, programs, and lectures along with running the Fell’s Point Visitor Center,” said Lisicky.

Ringing a large handbell and proclaiming loudly, Lisicky and Trautwein listed all of Cromwell’s achievements. She worked as a volunteer for the Fell’s Point Fun Festival since the 1970s.

She has since worked as the arts and volunteer coordinator for the festival.

“It is long overdue that we recognize your service, finally we now say thank you,” said Trautwein.

Cromwell was grateful for the honor. She jokes that she’s frustrated that people often forget the apostrophe in Fell’s and that she gets many calls asking about the correct spelling.

The second award, the Lifetime Achievement Award, was given to Thomas Ward, the former chairman of the Baltimore Liquor Board.

Library Square is a patch of land in front of the Patterson Park branch of the Enoch Pratt library at 158 N. Linwood Ave. The once abandoned area has been given new life in recent years due to the hard work of the Friends of Library Square.

With the support of local organizations like Banner Neighborhoods, the Friends hope to make Library Square a destination for families and a center for neighborhood events.

“Everybody wanted to activate this space a little more. We wanted to bring in arts and games. There’s a lot of changes and transformations that’s going to be happening here and of course, that will always draw in more people and get them excited about what’s going on” said Anthony Newman, the community organizer for Banner Neighborhoods.

The newest project is a mobile food market, made possible by a partnership with Real Food Farm, a non-profit farm located in Clifton Park. Every Friday the farm’s truck will park in Library Square and sell fresh produce to residents.

Best Pet Care!

What sets Practical Pet Protocol training classes apart from the rest in Baltimore?

We keep you in control, teaching you how to deliver commands such as sit, down, come, stay, heel, and place.

We expose your dog to real-world distractions during the training process, ensuring the training is solid and reliable. After all, these new behaviors need to stick even after the group sessions have ended.

We’ll teach you a time-tested approach that will enable you to ad-dress any behavioral relapses or new behavior problems before they get out of hand, without needing to call on a trainer.

We address not only the elements needed for basic obedience, but also the elements needed for a basic, functional relationship with your dog. We show you how to develop a bond of mutual trust and respect that will allow you to keep a positive influence on your dog’s behav-ior.

You will receive a 40+ page booklet and free access to our mobile app to make your independent practice with your pet easier and more effective.

THE PRACTICAL PET PROTOCOLFunctional Obedience for Dogs and their Families


“We thought it’d be a good start to use the mobile market to raise awareness and in the future we’ll work on a full-fledged farmer’s market for the Square,” said Newman.

Newman said that the full market is a possibility, but they just need to generate enough volunteer power and community interest.

The market is at the Square every Friday from 2:45 until 3:15 p.m. That time was chosen because it is when students are being picked up from school.

At the market last week, curious children gathered by the bright green truck. Davon Bangs, a volunteer for Real Food Farm, gave them gala apples to try, which they happily sampled.

A woman is looking through a bag filled with vegetables and apples and says “Bueno!” when Bangs says her total is only eight dollars.

“This is the third mobile market season we actually have the truck. We focus mainly on northeast Baltimore, so this is more South than we usually go. But we go wherever we’re called to,” said Bangs. He said the truck has about six stops a day and runs Tuesday through Friday.

The produce will be different each week. Newman jokes and said he’s excited for the autumn harvests because that means the sweet potatoes will be on sale.

Newman said the market is so important because the neighborhood is a food desert. The closest place that serves fresh produce is the Aldi’s on Pulaski, which is quite a trek if you don’t have transportation.

He hopes the truck will bring out members of the community and allow them to see and appreciate the new Library Square.

Newman points out the new mural at the

Square’s center. The colorful, geometric, mandala appears to move and twist like an optical illusion. Surrounding the mural are brand new benches and trash and recycling bins.

He said that this is only the start. First, the crosswalks will be repainted and in the spring a 3 ft. decorative fence will be installed. On the side of the park that connects to Streeper St, a large archway that says “Library Square” will be installed.

But the largest project will be bio-retention gardens that will line the Square.

“A lot of time when it rains, a whole bunch of water and a whole bunch of trash settles here. The purpose of the gardens is to soak up some of the water so there’s not so much flooding,” said Newman.

The garden installations will begin this fall, and are possible due to a grant from the Chesapeake Bay Trust. The goal is to promote environmentally-friendly stormwater management and mitigation.

Other improvements to Library Square include an outdoor community garden by the Audubon Center, a rat abatement program, wildlife workshops, and façade improvement grants for the surrounding small businesses.

“Library Square will be a unique community and ecological destination that is beautiful, safe and vibrant. Cared for well into the 21st century, Library Square will connect people to places, nature and one another. We have a plan, community support, and the funding to transform Library Square within the next couple of years,” states the Patterson Park Neighborhood Association about the Square.

BIRDS HOUSE by Andy MindzAk

Focusing onwhat’s important

While sitting in traffic the other day I made the poor decision to search Yahoo for news stories which I immediately regretted. Taylor Swift said something to someone on Twitter… Some Real Housewife from some city did something stupid after pounding 15 glasses of Pinot Grigio… Donald Trump said something that pissed someone off… Kanye West said something that pissed everyone off… Wait, what’s this on page 5,000 of news items? Major League Baseball announces 2015 Roberto Clemente Award nominees.

Finally, something worth reading, unfortunately it took me a million swipes to get to this story.

With all of the negative news we hear on a daily basis, rarely, if ever do we hear about people that do good things and contribute within their community. On Monday Major League Baseball announced their list of finalists for the 2015 Roberto Clemente Award and the Baltimore Orioles’ representative is Brian Matusz.

In case you aren’t aware of the Roberto Clemente Award, the yearly award goes to a player “who best represents the game of baseball through positive contributions on and off the field, including sportsmanship and community involvement.” You know, boring stuff.

Roberto Clemente was a Hall of Fame baseball player who tragically dies in a plane crash while on the way to deliver supplies to earthquake victims in Nicaragua back in 1972. The award was previously named the Commissioner’s Award but was changed to honor Clemente in 1973.

Unfortunately our society finds it more interesting to watch some “reality” TV show where a bunch of sloppy, drunk, old women find things of no significance to argue about for 60 minutes instead of learning about how Brian Matusz earned the nomination for his work with many charities in and around the Baltimore community including Casey Cares, the Cool Kids Campaign, Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter, and the OriolesREACH Gameday Experience Program.

Matusz also makes frequent visits to pediatric patients at the Herman and Walter Samuelson Children’s Hospital at Sinai Hospital. He also contributes $5,000 annually

to the OriolesREACH Ticket program, providing at-risk children with the opportunity to attend an Orioles game when they normally would not be able to.

While Matusz will represent the Orioles for the Roberto Clemente Award, he is certainly not alone in giving back to the community.

Adam Jones is another Oriole who has helped out around Baltimore in a big way. Jones has worked tirelessly with the Boys and Girls Club of Metropolitan Baltimore over the years and has helped then raise over $100,000 towards the expansion and renovation of the Brooklyn O’Malley Boys and Girls Club Technology and Learning Center. Through the Jackie Robinson Foundation, Jones has been sponsoring one of their scholars since 2013 with a grant that will sustain her tuition for four years while studying neurobiology at Spelman College in Atlanta, GA.

Darren O’Day is another player who works hard to give back. 2015 will be the third season in which O’Day will make a donation to Luke’s Wings based on his on-field performance. Luke’s Wings is a non-profit military organization dedicated to the support of current and former service members who have been wounded in battle. O’Day donates $50 per every strikeout to Luke’s Wings and has raised just over $6,000 in 2013 and 2014 combined.

The Orioles are also supporters of BARCS, the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter. Several Orioles got together to make a calendar that they will sell to raise money for the shelter. Sales of their 2014 calendar raised over $51,000 for BARCS and over the past few years the Orioles have helped raise over $150,000 for the organization. Players like Matt Wieters, J.J. Hardy, Manny Machado, Chris Davis, and David Lough spend time to help this charity.

No matter what these Orioles do on the field, many of them seem to be winners off of it thanks to the way they carry themselves and the work they do to help others. These are the stories that need to make the headlines instead of reading about what Miley Cyrus wore, or didn’t wear, to some pointless award show.

Friends and family remember Leto’s love for lifeBy ERIK ZyGMOnT [email protected]“We didn’t think we’d need all this space, but obviously we did,” said Diane Posko to a couple hundred friends and family mem-bers gathered at Fell’s Point’s Polish Home Club last Friday to celebrate the life of Kimberly Leto.

Posko, Leto’s sister, said that Leto would not have wanted the event to be sad. “She would love for us to all focus on how much we all loved her and her smile and laugh,” Posko said. She also mentioned her sister’s “abso-lutely wicked” sense of humor and deep affinity for the spiritual.“Although Kim was not associated with a specific religion, she was very spiritual,” said Posko. “She had an uncanny ability to understand these ancient texts.” Jan Dietrich, a spiritual mentor for Leto, said that she “really valued the presence of God in her life.”

St. to the east, Fairmount Ave. to the south, with Haven St. as the nearest western street boundary. It has a basketball court, playground equipment and an open field where Gentry says three generations of her family played.“I thought the meeting was about fixing the park up,” she says. “Not taking it away.”

Janney Street Park has no obvious signage indicating that it is a city park, save for a weathered rusty sign hanging from the park’s chain-linked fence with the acronym POS—indicating that the park is or was affiliated with Program Open Space, a program that conserves natural

Cathy Gentry didn’t think that neighborhood parks could disappear, but she may find out otherwise.Last November she and some of her Janney St.-area neighbors attended a meeting of the city and the Baltimore Development Corporation informing them that the nearby Pompeian Olive Oil Company was interested in expanding and would like to buy Janney Street Park from the city—and the city was considering selling it to them.

Janney Street Park, at 140 Janney St., is a 1.5 acre park in a heavily industrial area. It is bordered broadly by Fayette St. to the north, Janney

SCHOOLS: repairs and renovations

Documents of the plan report three possible courses of action:

• Renovation/addition with retention of all or most of the existing building

• Partial replacement with removal of most of the existing building

• Full replacement of all of the existing building.

Some proposed requirements for the locations include better parking, play grounds, courtyards, and outdoor areas for the students.

“The project is planned to be complete by year 2018. In SY 2023-24, the anticipated state-rated capacity of the building will be 1,614 total (1,444 Patterson and 170 Claremont), and with co-located programs, its projected building utilization rate will be 93%,” states the school’s building plan.

Specific details on how developers will proceed with the schools, as well as an estimated budget, are to be determined.

Design development is expected to be completed by December of 2015, with construction beginning December of 2016.

Phase 2 of the plan lists the Canton Building and John Ruhrah Elementary and Middle School at 701 Rappolla St. as possible future sites for renovations.

The goal of the program is to allow schools to become hubs for the community and a way to teach students life skills that will benefit them in the future. The program is being financed by the Department of Public Works. The agencies involved in the construction all had to agree to a Memorandum of Understanding with the school’s surrounding community to secure funding.

On Thursday, September 10, a public forum was held to give an overview of the plans and ask for community input.

“This is an exciting moment for our kids, for our city. This is one of the largest school construction projects in the country. We know our kids deserve all the opportunities, your voices were loud and we heard it all the way in Annapolis. We’re going to build the schools of the future,” said Dr. Gregory Thorton, the CEO of Baltimore City’s schools.

The schools in the program will also get upgrades such as better lighting, sturdier construction, and better air quality.

Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake followed Thorton and said this construction

was happening at a “critical time.” She said that with educational benefits,

the updates will improve after-school programs and recreational activities for students. She expressed that it would help boost the local economy and provide opportunities for summer jobs.

“I knew part of my mission had to make sure Baltimore’s young people had the same and better opportunities that I did while I was in the school system. We want our children to reach their full potential. We need to make sure our young people have the tools they need to succeed in college, and in careers, and in life. That’s what this work is about,” said Rawlings-Blake.

Davis Lever, the Executive Director at the Public School Construction Program, said that the 21st Century schools will give city students the same quality education as students in the county. He said Baltimore City’s school system was the oldest in the state. He expressed the importance of making schools a place where students can feel safe and thrive.

“There’s also psychological aspects to this. We want the experience of young people in our schools to be what they take with them through life, along with the friendships they’ve made, and the teachers and mentors that have helped them,” said Lever. “There’s also an important symbolic role that the schools represents. Architecture has a special role in expressing the values of a society. When you have a city like Baltimore that is rebuilding all these schools, you’re recognizing that we’re a society that places a very high value on education. It’s a vote of confidence in the young people.”
