  • 184 Maryland Historical Magazine Thomas Poppleton’S Map: Vignettes of a City’S Self Image
    184 Maryland Historical Magazine Thomas Poppleton’s Map: Vignettes of a City’s Self Image Jeremy Kargon ritten histories of Baltimore often refer to thePlan of the City of Baltimore, published originally in 1823. Typically but imprecisely credited to Thomas WPoppleton, this map illustrated the city plan he produced between 1816 and 1822. City politicians had commissioned a survey just before the War of 1812, but Poppleton began his work in earnest only after the conflict ended. Once adopted, the work determined the direction of Baltimore’s growth until well after the Civil War.1 Although this street layout significantly influenced the city’s nineteenth-cen- tury development, a second feature of this document has also attracted historians of the city’s architecture. The map’s publisher’s arranged thirty-five small engravings around the border of the map illustrating public buildings in use or under construc- tion at the time of the original publication. They gave each illustration a simple title and provided additional descriptive information about the building, including the architect’s name, the building’s date of completion, and the building’s cost. These pictures are a useful record of Baltimore’s earliest significant architecture, particu- larly for those buildings demolished before the age of photography. Historians’ treatments of these images, and of the map itself, have typically looked at these illustrations individually.2 Consideration of their ensemble, on the other hand, provides evidence for discussion of two broader themes, the public’s perception of architecture as a profession and as a source of shared material cul- ture, and the development of that same public’s civic identity as embodied in those buildings.

  • 200-Year-Old Cornerstone Discovered During Baltimore's
    DATE: February 16, 2015 CONTACT: Cathy Rosenbaum Mount Vernon Place Conservancy [email protected] 410-560-0180 443-904-4861 mobile FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 200-Year-Old Cornerstone Discovered During Baltimore’s Washington Monument Restoration th Contents Revealed Wednesday, February 18 at 1:00 pm (Baltimore, Maryland) – Today, the Mount Vernon Place Conservancy (Conservancy) reports that it believes the original cornerstone of the Washington Monument has been discovered. It likely has a hollowed out well in the granite base in which items were deposited during the cornerstone ceremony on July 4, 1815. On Wednesday, February 18th at 1:00 pm, the Mount Vernon Place Conservancy invites the press to be on-site at the Washington Monument (699 N. Charles Street, Baltimore, MD 21201) when the two-hundred-year old contents of the cornerstone will be revealed. The laying of the cornerstone in 1815 was of national interest because Baltimore’s Washington Monument was the first American monument dedicated to the Father of American democracy. Interestingly, the cornerstone laying ceremony was well documented, but the location of the cornerstone was not mentioned, and its location had been lost to time. The stone was discovered while George Wilk, II, Project Superintendent for Lewis Contractors, was overseeing the digging of a pit for a sewage tank off the northeast corner of the building. The cornerstone is a large square of granite with a marble lid. Its overall dimensions form a nearly-perfect cube measuring 24 inches. Conservators from the nearby Walters Art Museum will assist in removing the contents of the cornerstone. Accounts mention papers items and coinage, typical cornerstone offerings at the time.

  • Monument Square & the Battle Monument.PDF
    National Park Service Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) U.S. Department of the Interior Built to Last No. 2 Monument Square & the Battle Monument (1805 & after, Maximilian Godefroy & others, architects) Excerpt from the full report written by Laurie Ossman, Ph.D., for HABS Originally known as “Courthouse Square,” Monument Square was the site of Baltimore’s first public buildings—a courthouse and jail, built in 1768. In 1805, the city erected a more substantial, brick courthouse on the site of the current courthouse (built 1894-1900), indicating that by the turn of the nineteenth century the square was firmly established as the functional center of civic life. The construc- tion of the Battle Monument in 1815-25 to commemorate the soldiers who had died in the Battle of North Point during the War of 1812 underscored the square’s importance as a symbol of civic identity and pride. The Battle Monument, together with the Washington Monument in nearby Mount Vernon Place, prompted President John Quincy Adams to refer to Baltimore in 1827 as “the monumental city.” Monument Square stands near the Monument Square & the Battle Monument, bird’s-eye view from the southeast.
