    LEW SCRIBE’S REPORT LAND ECONOMICS WEEKEND BALTIMORE, MD APRIL 26 – 28, 2018 By Josef Nathanson, LAI Baltimore Chapter LEW Presentations: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ck3rt333mls3iz7/AAALogrWsHrwp2W4SeCVCZ4_a?dl=0 LEW Photos: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/oos0y5e1laajrfw/AACDyWnQGSGm_nR4COltxb_za?dl=0 THURSDAY: TOP OF THE WORLD The Spring 2018 Land Economics Weekend in Baltimore officially got underway on Thursday, April 26. After a long day of business meetings by both the LAI Board of Governors and the officers of the Land Economics Foundation and a few special committee meetings, the work gave way to festivities. The President’s Reception was located at the “Top of the World.” That would be a reference to the 27th floor of the World Trade Center, at 405 feet it is regarded as the world’s tallest regular pentagonal building. Designed, starting in 1966 by the firm of famed architect I. M. Pei (Pei Cobb Freed and Partners), the 422,000 square feet building was completed in 1977 at a cost of $22-million. Overlooking Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, "Top of the World", provides a 360-degree panoramic view of the city. Happily, the sun was shining brightly as 150 LAI members and guests gathered for the reception. The proceedings were underway with official greetings from International President Robert McBride, Baltimore Chapter President Mel Freeman and representing Baltimore Mayor Catherine C. Pugh, Baltimore City Department of Planning Director, Thomas Stosur. We also had greetings from the President’s Reception Sponsors: Chris Rockey, Senior Vice President, Community Development Banking, PNC Bank and more extensive comments from Baltimore Chapter member Ernst Valery, Principal, Managing Member and President, SAA I EVI, a planner turned developer.
