UB administration and faculty members in the law school and in the undergraduate departments of history and community studies are planning a series of projects and events to commemorate the 40th anniversary of this pivotal event. We are currently working with the Reginald F. Lewis Museum of Maryland African American History, The Jewish Museum of Maryland, Maryland Public Television and the Enoch Pratt Free Libraries to pursue funding for projects that may include conferences, a website and a library traveling exhibit. Your potential participation in an oral history project would contribute to the very foundation of this project – the memories of Baltimoreans who lived through the riots and saw the changes that came about in response to them.

  • PS 103 Landmark Report.Pdf
    Baltimore City Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation Landmark Designation Report June 11, 2013 Public School No. 103 —Henry Highland Garnet School 1315 Division Street Baltimore, Maryland The content of this report is from A Plan for PS103 – Thurgood Marshall’s Elementary School Prepared for the Mayor‟s Commission on Former PS103 under the auspices of the Baltimore National Heritage Area, Point Heritage Consulting, October 31, 2010. Summary PS103, a landmark in the Upton community of West Baltimore, is significant to Baltimore for its architecture and the important role that it played in the history of education in the city. It was designed by prominent architect George Frederick in 1877 to serve white children, and in its form met the best practices for the design of school buildings, a design that is still retained today. In 1911, it became a school for African American children, earning a reputation as one of the city‟s finest. This school played an important role in the education of thousands of children in West Baltimore, including Thurgood Marshall, who later became a leader in the desegregation of the nation‟s public school system, as well as for his service as the first African American Justice on the Supreme Court of the United States. PS 103 is significant for the role that it played in the education of African American students prior to desegregation, and for its architecture. History The school at 1315 Division Street was constructed by order of Baltimore‟s Board of School Commissioners between 1876 and 1877 to address overcrowding in the Male and Female Grammar School No.

  • Alliance for Historic Landscape Preservation 35 Annual Meeting
    Alliance for Historic Landscape Preservation 35th Annual Meeting Abstracts of Papers, Works-In-Progress, and Posters Resilience, Renewal, and Renaissance: Keeping Cultural Landscapes Relevant Lynchburg, Virginia March 20–23, 2013 The Question of Relevance: Ideas from Italo Calvino Ian Firth, Professor Emeritus, University of Georgia, Athens In May 1999, Lynn Beebe, Poplar Forest's first president, challenged a group of professionals and academics involved in preservation to come up with ideas that would go beyond a conventional museum approach for this preservation project and give it additional relevance. At that time, acquisition of the surrounding landscape was still a major hurdle though restoration of Jefferson's house was well underway, so responses to Beebe's challenge focused on the use of the house. Now, in 2013, with work on the curtilage underway, the best way to treat and use the wider agricultural landscape of Jefferson's plantation remains the subject of debate. This situation is not unusual at many historic places. It can be attributed to various factors including the complex ecological and social problems that have to be addressed in large-scale landscape preservation projects, while the substantial costs of initial work and long-term maintenance inevitably raise questions about the relevance of such ambitious undertakings. Several authorities in the field of historic preservation including Kevin Lynch and David Lowenthal have addressed the issue of relevance and their ideas have been widely circulated. This presentation considers questions raised by someone less well known in this field, Italo Calvino. In his book 'Invisible Cities', Calvino presents a wide variety of ideas, many in the form of questions and caveats concerning attitudes towards our environment and our past.

  • Executive Secretaries & Executive Directors
    History of MACo 5 Executive Secretaries & Executive Directors Robert Lovelace: June 1960 - November 1961 Bill Ratchford: November 1961 - October 1962 Thomas Kelly: October 1962 - January 1964 Bill Ratchford: January 1964 - November 1968 Joe Murnane: November 1968 - May 1978 Wallace “Wally” Hutton: October 1978 - July 1981 Althea “Tee” O'Connor: September 1981 - August 1985 Raquel Sanudo: June 1985 - June 1991 David Bliden: July 1991 - Present Since the first Executive Director was hired in 1960, the men and women who have held that position have come from varied career backgrounds. The responsibilities of the position have changed and duties have been expanded and diversified. Similarly, the MACo staff has grown, from the charter staff of Executive Secretary Lovelace and a stenographer, to the seven staff members who serve the organization today. Each Executive Director has not only redefined the position, but, along with his or her staff, has helped to shape and develop MACo itself. Robert Lovelace As discussed in the previous chapter, Robert Lovelace, a former city manager, began his duties with the Association upon the establishment of the Symons Hall office beginning June 1, 1960. Per the agreement with the University of Maryland, he joined their staff as a lecturer in American Government. As the first Executive Secretary, as it was then called, Lovelace set the pace and provided a basic structure for those that would come after him. As is the case today, in 1960 the SACCOM Board was made up of county officials for whom Association service was only one aspect of their responsibilities; Lovelace was the first person involved with the organization that could focus wholly on its development.

  • Final Environmental Impact Statement Future Development and Operations
    FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FUTURE DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONS FORT GEORGE G. MEADE, MARYLAND June 2001 Fort George G. Meade, Maryland Directorate of Public Works Environmental Management Office Fort Meade, Maryland 20755 U.S. Army Military District of Washington Fort Lesley J. McNair Washington, D.C. 20319 .... FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPAcrSTATMENT···- LEAD AGENCY: Department of the Army, Military District of Washington. TITLE OF THE PROPOSED ACTION: Future Development and Operations Fort George G. Meade, Maryland. AFFECTED JURISDICTION: State of Maryland, Anne Arundel and Howard Counties. PROPONENT REVIEWED BY: Fort George G. Meade, Maryland, Directorate of Public Works, Environmental Management Office, Fort Meade, Maryland 20755. REVIEWED BY: U.S. Army Military District of Washington, Fort Lesley J. McNair, Washington, D.C. 20319. END OF WAITING PERIOD AFTER FILING: 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. ABSTRACT: An environmental assessment (EA) prepared in April 1999 determined that potentially significant adverse impacts to traffic and air quality could result from the proposed future development and operations at Fort Meade. Pursuant to NEPA, this Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was undertaken to evaluate, in detail, the environmental and socioeconomic effects of future development and operations at the installation, specifically planned new construction and associated demolition activities. The Proposed Action includes development and operations expected to occur on the installation between 2001 and 2005. To provide the specificity needed for reasonable predictions of environmental consequences, 11 projects were identified by the Fort Meade Master Planner for consideration within the Proposed Action as being representative of the expected build out. Alternative A consists of constructing 9 of the 11 projects, excluding the two projects least likely to occur; their elimination reduces the number of additional personnel by 272, or 30 percent of the 912 additional personnel included in the Proposed Action.

COMPLAINT PURSUANT TO TITLE VI OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF 1964 1 On June 25, 2015, Maryland Governor, Larry Hogan, announced that the State had cancelled construction of the Red Line, a light rail line set to run east-west through the Baltimore region, and that all state funding for it would be redirected to a newly-created Highways, Bridges, and Roads Initiative, focusing on road projects in rural and suburban parts of the state.1 In doing so, Maryland forfeited $900 million in federal funds designated for the Line and abandoned a twelve-year planning process on which the State and federal government had expended approximately $288 million.2 A transportation economist, using Maryland’s own travel model, found that whites will receive 228 percent of the net benefit from the decision, while African Americans will receive -124 percent. The decision to cancel the Red Line and divert the resources elsewhere was only the latest in the State’s long historical pattern of deprioritizing the needs of Baltimore’s3 primarily African-American population,4 many of whom are dependent on public transportation.5 1 Michael Dresser & Luke Broadwater, Hogan Says No to Red Line, Yes to Purple, Balt.
