Not another mattress store, say residents

Patterson Park users have been asked to take a survey, the latest development in the process of updating the park’s master plan, set in motion close to two years ago now, when Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake ordered the formation of the Patterson Park working group following public outcry over a city proposal to add 96 parking spaces to the park. .

Young and Branch introduce legislation to require police body camera use

(Editor’s note: The following is a press release from City Council President Jack Young’s office.)

City Councilman Warren Branch and Council President Bernard C. “Jack” Young introduced legislation at last night’s Council meeting that would require members of the Baltimore Police Department to wear digital audio and video recording devices to capture their interactions with the public.

Lester Davis, of Young’s office, said that the move received near unanimous support from City Council, except for Councilman Robert Curran, who was absent from the meeting. The legislation comes on the heels of a number of local and national high-profile cases involving allegations of police misconduct. If passed, the bill would be phased in over a year. Young said that the investment in cameras could save the city money by potentially reducing costly settlements resulting from police misconduct cases. “The majority of our officers are hard-working and respectful,” Young said. “But too often we allow a handful of bad apples to taint our entire department. The use of camera equipment will help protect our citizens and the officers entrusted to serve them.” In a randomized controlled study conducted in 2012 by The Police Foundation, officers in Rialto California experienced dramatic declines in reports of complaints after

requiring police use of body cameras. In the first year of the program. The Police Foundation reported that complaints against officers declined 88 percent compared with the previous year, and instances of use of force by police dropped 60 percent. Tara Richards, an assistant professor at the University of Baltimore’s School of Criminal Justice, agreed that body cameras can reduce complaints against officers by providing information that can protect police and citizens. “The adoption of police body cameras and audio recording equipment is becoming widespread with jurisdictions across the country beginning to use the technology,” she said. “Such equipment provides the opportunity for transparency in officer-citizen interactions and gathers valuable information that can be used to protect both parties in cases of potential wrongdoing.” Studies have also shown support for the cameras by police officers. In a survey published in the Journal of Criminal Justice that sampled 95 patrol officers from the Orlando Police Department, 62.7 percent of the officers agreed or strongly agreed that their agency should adopt body cameras and 77 percent agreed or strongly agreed that they would feel comfortable wearing the cameras.

Committee, the most recent incarnation of the group of residents, city department representatives and representatives from groups and organizations (Audubon for example) associated with the park.

The other survey is “the big statistical survey,” explained Robinson, adding that that survey should commence within a few weeks, and will continue for a year.

A graduate student based either in the White House (Friends of Patterson Park headquarters) or the Casino will approach individuals in the park during all hours and all four seasons to better understand the same things queried in the snapshot survey, which Robinson said “is kind of supplementing” the larger survey.

The website with the snapshot survey includes other interactive, information-gathering activities to which users may contribute. A “map the park” feature allows residents to label park landmarks that are “current successes,” “in need of repair,” or “future opportunities.”

There’s also a discussion board with forums for members of the working groups (charged with working on specific portions of the master plan, “maintenance and governance,” for example), the steering committee, or the general public. At present, there is only one member registered to the forums.

Sources have stated that next spring is a tentative target time for wrapping up the master planning process.

Data from Americorps National Civilian Community Corps members, who surveyed alley dumping in Highlandtown and Baltimore Highlands in May and June, shows that discarded mattresses were indeed found in alleys, particularly in Baltimore Highlands in alleys near Esther Pl. and Baltimore St.

Timmins said that she recently had an “enormous pile,” including four mattresses and two sofas, picked up from behind her own residence.

She added that Rinehart did not contact the BHCA to gauge residents’ sentiments toward a bedding and furniture store.

“If a business doesn’t come talk to us, we’re not going to immediately rally against them,”

she explained, noting that the dumping issue is the real impetus for the opposition.

Not coming to the community association, Timmins said, “is the cherry on top of the sundae here.”

The property was served a violation notice in July for “use of premises not consistent with zoning for this area.”

The address is zoned residential, but has a grandfathered use as an auto repair shop.

“My business is more quiet with less traffic,” wrote Rinehart on his application for a use and occupancy permit for his bedding and furniture store, submitted July 30, nine days after the violation notice was served.

N. Clinton St. bar gets 30-day suspension

The liquor license for Punta G, a bar at 123 N. Clinton St., has been suspended for 30 days following a violation hearing last Thursday with the Liquor Board.

The establishment was also ordered to pay over $4,000 in fines and administrative costs.

Violations heard included live entertainment (dancing) without board approval, allowing a promoter to bring his own alcoholic beverages, using the roof of the building, being filled beyond capacity, and having an intoxicated crowd disturb the surrounding residential neighborhood.

These incidents occurred from November of last year to July of this year.

A liquor inspector also reported that, in violation of the city’s rules requiring liquor establishments to cooperate with authorities, a bartender was using a buzzer as an alert warning that an inspector or police officer was entering the establishment.

In an incident report from Dec. 13, 2013, Police Officer Todd Brown reported that he observed an 18-year-old female in the 200

block of N. Highland Ave., lying in the street and screaming uncontrollably. According to Brown’s report, her male companion advised him that she had taken “an unknown narcotic, possibly ecstasy,” from a man selling the drug on the second floor of Punta G.

Brown’s report states that the officer made a check of the bar, and “observed approximately 250-300 patrons jam packed inside the location with barely enough room to move.” The officer also saw a Fire Department sign that put the maximum capacity of the club at 140 people.

“Upon noticing my presence, many of the club patrons who I believed to possibly be underage dropped their drinks and headed for the exit before I could stop them,” the report continues.

The licensee for Punta G., Luis George, also faces a violation hearing this Thursday, Sept. 24, for an incident earlier this month in which Punta G allegedly sold alcohol to an underage police cadet.

The Baltimore Guide thanks Atty. Becky Witt of the Community Law Center for information that contributed to this article.

Time travel with Emily DickinsonGlimpse the secrets of Emily Dickinson’s

brilliant heart and join in a farewell tea during a visit in Washington, DC, with her father, a member of the U. S. Congress.

Teaching artist and poet MiMi Zannino will portray the 19th-Century poet in a free live show this Saturday, Sept. 27, 2 p.m., at the Southeast Anchor Library, 3601 Eastern Ave.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) was an American poet whose works are considered among the finest in the English language. From her family home in Amherst, Mass., she exchanged spirited, engaging letters with family and friends, exploring events of her day and addressing intellectual and artistic topics of the time.

Although she was a prolific poet, only a

dozen of her works were published during her lifetime, with nearly 1,800 published for the first time after her death.

Playful yet mysterious, highly independent in her beliefs, and always ready with her own branch of charming wit, Dickinson captures the imagination of people world-wide.

MiMi Zannino is a published poet and teaching artist who facilitates creative writing and memoir-writing classes throughout Maryland in schools, hospitals, and retirement communities. A graduate of Johns Hopkins University and Towson University, she has served the Maryland State Arts Council as a poet-in-residence since 1989.

For more information on Saturday’s show, contact the library at 410-396-1580.

Fresh new business squeezes into CantonBarbara Taylor, owner of Corner Juice Bar,

hands over a “Jump Start”--a blend of pineapple, avocado, spinach, banana and apple juice.

It’s green and delicious.“Basically, my whole mission is getting

people back to the basics,” says Taylor. “You look at that smoothie—that color green—Mother Nature doesn’t need a lot of help.”

Taylor opened Corner Juice Bar at the beginning of the summer, but her holistic outlook is no fleeting conversion.

She addresses her brother, Dan Taylor: “I’ve been this way—what do you think, Dan?--forever.” Taylor was part of Baltimore’s juicing scene, as it were, in the late 70s and early 80s, running a juice bar in LeTaylorington Market until a stabbing convinced her to move on.

From there, a long stint in Florida was broken when her father fell ill. Taylor moved back to Baltimore to be with him.

“I was with him for the last two months, and then I didn’t have the heart to leave my mom,” she says, adding that she wants to spend as much time as possible with her mother.

When Taylor is not doing that, she’s running the shop, crafting juices and smoothies herself.

“Everything is made to order,” she says. “Some smoothies don’t take as much time; others do.”

While Taylor has plans to offer dehydrated fruits for “snack packs,” she doesn’t plan to stray too far from her core products.

“I’m trying to keep it pretty simple right now,” she says. “People find it hard to make up their minds when they’re not used to juicing.”

Still, options are plentiful. The “Fresh Start” includes spinach, pear, honeydew melon, green apple and ginger. Taylor even makes savory smoothies, including one with tomato, green pepper, celery and garlic.

She makes the savory smoothies in a separate juice “because the garlic hangs on.” For veteran juice-enthusiasts, Corner Juice Bar has an array of “magic” ingredients, including wheatgrass and royal jelly.

Taylor favors seasonal ingredients. “I deal a lot with local farmers,” she says. “I”ll have a lot of cranberry smoothies come fall.”

The shop is also a miniature art gallery, with works and crafts from local artists. Some stand-out items include a monster sculpture that is also a charcoal grill, created by David Aaron Friedheim, and an antique butcher block, a square, solid piece of wood that “must weigh 300 pounds,” says Taylor.

Corner Juice Bar is in the building once occupied by Herman’s Bakery, and Taylor kept the original display cases, which now display art.

“Everything in here is for sale,” says Taylor. So far, the neighborhood response has been

positive.“I’ve been very well received here,” says

Taylor. “Everybody that comes in is thankful that we’re here; it’s a nice response.”

She won’t be leaving Canton anytime soon.“I’m in for the long haul,” Taylor continues.

“Family is most important to me...I’m down to one parent and I want to spend everyday I can with my mom.”

Everybody that comes in is

thankful that we’re here; it’s a nice

response.

Fourth All Ages Art Cart Derby a success

Events all over the Southeast and the finale of the Bicentennial of the War of 1812 celebration didn’t keep the crowd away from Highlandtown last Saturday, where drivers once again braved the Gough St. hill in the fourth annual Art Cart Derby.

Highlights of the event included a performance art/assembly-line art endeavor by Piecework, a group of artists, who folded artfully-decorated paper hats in a choreographed line and placed them on the heads of bystanders.

Baltimore Dance Crews Project, a group of city youths who learn creativity and the value of community through dance, while promoting a healthy lifestyle, put in a stand-out performance, followed by a dance session in which the audience was invited to participate.

Of course, there were the Art Carts themselves, rolling down Gough St. Every year, the mechanics of the individual carts seem to improve across the board.

Former Guide editor to discuss Canton’s rich history by ERIK ZyGMONT

[email protected]

Canton has great bars, the parking situation’s a little rough, and the Facebook page can get a little colorful.

Canton is also a place of major industrial history, as John Cain, a former editor of the Baltimore Guide, hopes to show residents.

Next Wednesday, Oct. 1, Cain is bringing an exhibit featuring historical memorabilia he has collected over the years and his own extensive knowledge of Canton History. The free exhibit will be at the Hatton Senior Center, 2825 Fait Ave., 10 a.m.-3:30 p.m.

Beer is a major component to life now in Canton, and it also played a major role a century or so ago. However, while today Cantonites consume beer, back then they produced it (and consumed it of course).

“The big industry was brewing, National Bohemian and all its variations, Gunther beer, and the rest,” said Cain.

But there was also canning—both filling cans and making cans.

“There were tens and tens and tens of different canning companies along the waterfront,” Cain said, “from Chester ST. to the Tindeco building.”

Though today, Tindeco doesn’t even have a Wikipedia page, it was a major company in its day.

“Tindeco started by making tins for tobacco products,” Cain explained, noting that the company produced exceptionally high-quality lithographs that labeled their containers.

“All kinds of businesses wanted in on it,” Cain said, “baking products, toiletries...”

From the late 1920s through the early 1930s, Cain added, the company was producing a million cans a day, “according to them.”

At least two major railroads also ran through Canton, including the Canton Railroad and the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad.

“There’s all kinds of memorabilia from that company,” said Cain.

Obviously not limited to land transport, Canton was also a hotbed for shipping.

“Sailing ships would scour the world for guano,” said Cain, noting that raw material was used to produce fertilizer in Canton-based plants.

Cain said that Ebay is a good source for southeast Baltimore memorabilia. Local businesses scattered throughout the neighborhood once gave their customers small trinkets and giveaways, “calendars, thermometers, stuff like that,” Cain said.

“Not everyone throws it away.”He added that West Coast collectors in

particular seem to have large amounts of Baltimore artifacts, such as tin cans made here or labels.

“I want to bring it all back to Baltimore,” said Cain.

BALTIMORE GUIDE 13WEDNESDAY, SEpTEMBER 24, 2014

Free workshop will tackle tough topics of youth and raceSometimes a simple, straightforward

approach is best for handling complicated issues.

What could be more complicated than the topics of race and youth in southeast Baltimore, and what’s a simpler solution than bringing together youths of several races for discussion on those topics?

This Saturday, the Creative Alliance, the Southeast Community Development Corp., and Communities for All Ages present “TEEN Neighborhood Voices: Our Stories About Race Where We Live,” a free workshop for residents with a special focus on teens, designed to give residents tools for difficult conversations.

The workshop, open to all, is 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Creative Alliance. Registration is required; call the Creative Alliance at 410-276-1651 or email [email protected].

Agatha So, a coordinator of the Neighborhood Voices workshops—which have been running for a couple years now—notes that even among the mindful, perceptions can lie, and prejudice can seep in. She found this facet of human nature confirmed comedically at the last Neighborhood Voices,

in August, when, at the end of the workshop, participants, including So herself, clamored for more youth participation in further sessions.

It turns out that there had been some teens present all along; their thoughtful commentary and maturity projected the image of adulthood.

Still, the organizers decided to orient this next Neighborhood Voices specifically toward teens, and this incarnation will feature the Intersection—a teen leadership program that has recently moved to Conkling St.—as special guest.

Baltimore Intersection, founded by executive director Zeke Cohen while he attended graduate school, is a program that accepts 15 Baltimore high school sophomores every year, kindles their motivation, teaches them community organizing skills, and assists them in becoming the first members of their families to attend college.

“Although they grew up in poverty, our kids have spoken at the U.S. Department of Education, at the Baltimore City Council, and at Teach for America’s Summer Institute in front of over 700 incoming teachers,” said Cohen in an interview at the beginning of this summer.

“Graduates” of Neighborhood Voices say

by ERIK [email protected]

that the workshop isn’t a one-off experience, but the start of a commitment to address issues of race as they come up in their daily lives.

Anne Sawyer, who attended Neighborhood Voices last October and then joined the planning committee behind the workshops, says that the program has given her the motivation to address racist comments from acquaintances.

“When my neighbors say ‘all these people are illegal,’ I’ll say, ‘What makes you think they’re illegal?’” said Sawyer. “Not every immigrant is here without documentation.”

She recommends the workshop to “anybody who wants to be more comfortable with issues surrounding race and ethnicity.”

Sawyer notes that the workshop incorporates engaging activities such as collaborative art to tackle a serious topic.

“We have tried to make it—I don’t want to say ‘fun’—but as enjoyable as possible,” she said.

Alanna Purdy, a student at Maryland Institute College of Art working on an MFA in community arts programs, is one of committee members behind the arts portion of the workshops.

“I didn’t think it was going to be that

important in the conversation...,” said Purdy, “but the fact that we integrated art into these discussions—now I can’t imagine talking about race without it.”

Like art, Purdy says, the workshops “give everyone a space to wlrk through these emotions in mutually respectful ways; it also creates something beautiful at the end.”

Maria Aldana, creative arts manager for the Creative Alliance and a founder and director of Neighborhood Voices, says that the workshop series grew out of small workshops aimed at bringing together residents under 21 and over 55. They grew, and are now open to all ages.

“We looked at the bigger issue,” said Aldana, “not about me and you, but us—how we accept norms that discriminate against people of color,” she said.

Agatha So, a community outreach coordinator with the Southeast CDC who has helped organize and promote Neighborhood Voices, says that the workshop now has clear goals.

“Our goals are to talk about race in a safe place, specifically focusing on southeast Baltimore, and to create new leadership and new language to talk about race,” she said.

Ever wondered about life toward the north of Patterson Park?

This weekend’s house tours—in the Butchers Hill and Patterson Park neighborhoods—offer opportunities to see the inside of some homes, and gardens, from Washington St. to Ellwood Ave.

Peter and Erin Sowa are opening their home on the 2100 block of Pratt St. as part of the Butchers Hill tour.

Peter said that he and his wife had gone on the tour last year and taken his parents.

“It was a nice day out—we had a great time,” he said.

This year, the Sowas decided to be on the tour because of “I guess pride in the house,” said Peter Sowa.

He said that the overall length of the property allows his family, now with a 5-month-old and 23-month-old, to have three bedrooms on one level.

“In that traditional Canton house, that second baby is going in the basement,” he commented.

Other highlights of the home include a detached carriage house, with a renovated office above for Erin Sowa, who works from home.

Peter Sowa also said that the contractor who renovated the home “had interesting sources for material,” including the Amish cabinet-maker who handmade the kitchen.

Trish White and her husband, also of Butchers Hill, moved into their 2200 E. Lombard St. home in 2005, and are finally finding the time to showcase their home.

“It seems like every year we had another project to work on,” said White, noting that her spouse had been earning “good husband points.”

The Whites’ home once housed a business, CharmNet, an early tech company.

“They had servers when computer servers were the size of bookcases,” remarked White, adding that she and her husband had to plug dozens of holes drilled into the walls for wiring, some large enough to require wooden dowels.

White says that one particularly enjoyable aspect of her home is the copious light, due to its being end-of-group with side windows. The home also includes two wood-burning fireplaces, a garage and a roof deck.

The Whites live on the upper floors of the home; they have rented out the first floor and basement as a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment that will not be featured on the tour.

The Butchers Hill House Tour is Sunday, Sept. 28, noon-5 p.m. Tickets for the self-

See northern Southeast ‘slice of life’ with home and garden toursguided tour are $12 in advance or $15 the day of the tour, and can be purchased at the Patterson Park White House, inside the park near Patterson Park Ave. and Lombard St., or online at butchershill.org.

The tour also offers babysitting services—for $15 for two-and-a-half hours, from noon-2:30 p.m. or 2:30-5 p.m., parents may leave their children with sitters from Wondersitters at the Patterson Park Casino building. There is a link to the Wondersitters page from butchershill.org.

Patterson ParkThe Patterson Park Neighborhood

Association is holding its house tour on Saturday, Sept. 27, 11 a.m.-3 p.m. This tour includes gardens as well as homes.

“We love city life but we also love the outdoors,” write Terresa and Andrew Wotring, who will be showing their urban oasis on N. Curley St.

“Even before we moved into our house, we planned for our back patio to be an expansion of our home.”

The garden incorporates art—a mural painted by a friend and mosaic walls created by Andrew Wotring—with native plants. Terresa Wotring happens to be chair of the greening committee for the Patterson Park Neighborhood Association.

“Our love for nature does not end with our own backyard,” write the Wotrings.

Heather Sand will be showing her four-bedroom home on the 100 block of S. Linwood Ave., where she lives with her husband and his two sons. The family looked at homes in the county as well as the city, eventually setting on the 1905-built rowhouse in Patterson Park as their “forever home.”

Kim Wiggins, who is organizing the Patterson Park house tour, says that the event is a fundraiser for the Patterson Park

Neighborhood Association, but also meant to showcase the living possibilities in the neighborhood.

“I decided to buy a home here myself after going on the house tour,” she said. “People seemed so neighborly and friendly, and everyone seemed to know each other.”

Wiggins added that anyone fed up with a certain aspect of life south of the park could consider living north of the park.

“Parking is better here,” she said. “I don’t ever park more than a block from my house.”

Tickets for the Patterson Park Neighborhood Association home and garden tour are $12 in advance, $15 the day of the event, and are available at BistroRx, 2901 E. Baltimore St., and Grace’s Acre, 101 N. Patterson Park Ave. Attendees of the tour are invited to get another up-close-and-personal taste of Patterson Park living with a block party scheduled for the unit block of Potomac St. the same day, starting at 6 p.m.

RAVENS GAME DAY SPECIAL

Ravens hit the jackpot with Justin Tucker Last Sunday, Ravens kicker Justin Tucker made a 32-yard field goal in the final

seconds against the Cleveland Browns, giving his team the win, 23-21. It was the third field goal he made that game, the eighth he has made this year, and

the 76th he’s made since he started kicking in the NFL, all for the Ravens. They depend on Tucker.The Ravens must have known something when they signed him in 2012, after no

teams took him during the NFL draft. The Ravens’ decision very quickly paid off, as Tucker kicked 42 extra points in the same number of attempts, and hit 32 out of 35 field goal attempts that same season.

2013 was a year of records for Tucker. According to baltimoreravens.com, he achieved the fourth-longest streak in NFL history when he made 33 field goals in a row. On Dec. 16, he kicked a 61-yard field goal—the Ravens record—against the Detroit Lions. In that same game, Tucker achieved another record by making six field goals, another Ravens record, according to baltimoreravens.com. His 140 total points that year was also a record for the Ravens.

Like many of his teammates, Tucker gets involved in non-football activities in his city. Last week, he was present for the ribbon cutting of a new turf field (purple, of course), and running track at City Springs Elementary and Middle School on S. Caroline St. After the ceremony, he stuck around and ran some drills with the young members of the City Springs football team.

Tucker gets involved with business too. Earlier this year, he was involved in a promotion with parking app Haystack.

The 24-year-old Tucker—6 feet and 189 pounds, according to baltmoreravens.com—is a graduate of University of Texas and is known to flash “hook ‘em horns.”

A practicing Catholic, Tucker has also been known to make the sign of the cross before field goal attempts. In a 2013 interview in the National Catholic Register, Tucker said that he particularly admires Matt Stover, a celebrated Ravens kicker from the past, for his incorporation of faith into football.

It doesn’t matter if it’s a mean feral or a precious house cat—fully vaccinated or not at all—a cat bite can become toxic fast, and potentially more dangerous than a dog bite.

Now don’t get it wrong. Yes, canines can deliver crushing bites that puncture and cause severe lacerations; however, dog bites don’t necessarily penetrate deep into the tissue. Cat bites, on the other hand, are a whole different story.

When a cat bites, her long sharp teeth puncture deep into the skin, introducing bacteria to surrounding tissues. The pinhole wound that looks small and non-threatening is actually the beginning of a serious problem. All cats carry Pasteurella multocida, a bacteria found in their saliva that can be a dangerous component of a cat’s bite. In fact, cats have double to triple the amount of this bacteria in their mouths that dogs do.

It’s all in the bite: What you didn’t know about cat bites

PET CAREBy Adriene Buisch

The fact that a cat’s bite often causes deep, small wounds complicates things. The wounds can rapidly seal over, trapping the bacteria under the skin. The bacteria then begins to rapidly multiply, spreading to surrounding tissues, which can become infected within two to 12 hours. Unlike dog bites, over 80 percent of cat bites become infected, and, according to the Journal of Hand Surgery, one out of three cat bite patients are eventually hospitalized due to infection.

As the bacteria spreads it can cause cellulitis (inflammation of deeper tissue) or travel through the blood stream, infecting other areas of the body and causing septicemia, or blood poisoning. In septicemia, red lines may appear on the skin, indicating the infection is spreading quickly.

As the infection progresses, the bite site will become red, swollen and painful. Some additional symptoms may include increased heart rate, high fever or low body temperature, and rapid breathing. If the infection is left untreated, the bacteria can reach areas of the body that may not be able to be treated with prophylactic antibiotics, precipitating a true emergency. The bacteria could enter joints or tendon sheaths, cause bone infections, septic shock and may even lead to surgery.

Any bite from an animal is cause for concern, but never take a cat bite lightly, no matter how minimal the wound may appear. Always clean the bite wound and seek medical attention immediately to prevent serious complications.

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
