The answer: where they have always been found—in the private sector. It’s that way today, and it was that way in 1955 when a group of 83 entrepreneurs and business executives met on January 5 and formed the Greater Baltimore Committee to “take prompt and aggressive action” to address pressing problems facing Baltimore City. The members of the new organization, which included Clarence W. Miles, an owner of the newly-purchased Baltimore Orioles, and a young mortgage banker named Jim Rouse, were “not interested in glamour, platitudes or false promises,” they said. Instead they sought to create an organization that would apply private-sector vision and resources to getting things done. Miles, whose law firm—Miles and Stockbridge—remains a leading GBC member today, was named the first chairman of the GBC. He and his colleagues envisioned a private-sector action committee to address the critical business climate issues of the day—Baltimore’s deteriorating downtown and its need for revitalization, critical transportation infrastructure and new business development. From that beginning sprung major downtown development, a spectacular revival of Baltimore’s Inner Harbor and subsequent economic growth beyond to the city’s north and south shores. GBC-led accomplishments along the way also include downtown baseball and football stadiums, a convention center and restoration of the Hippodrome Theatre, just to name a few. Meanwhile, GBC policy advocacy has been influential in shaping government initiatives on issues ranging from regional transportation to competitiveness for economic growth and job creation. During the last six decades, the GBC has broadened its perspective to a regional focus, and strong private- sector vision and advocacy for progress is needed more than ever. The GBC remains uniquely positioned for this role, leading the way today to strengthen transportation infra- structure, the Inner Harbor, workforce development and to support the growth of industry sectors vital to our economic future. Such sectors include cybersecurity, bioscience, information technology and health care, as well as industries related to the thriving Port of Baltimore. The GBC also serves as a respected and credible voice of free enterprise in Annapolis, tackling policy issues related to our state’s competitiveness such as tax structure, government spending priorities and regulatory policies. Along the way, the GBC serves as the premier venue in the region for building business relationships as we work together to strengthen our business climate. The GBC provides the framework for a unified, connected, visionary and engaged business community. This directory lists the business and civic leaders who are part of the framework and who drive the work of the GBC. Sixty years after a group of visionaries met in Baltimore to form a new vehicle for meaningful private- sector advocacy, the GBC remains the region’s “go to” organization for getting things done. We gratefully acknowl- edge the GBC’s strong board leadership, the personal involvement of our members, a resourceful staff and our many civic and government partners. We look forward to continuing our work together to apply private-sector vision and advocacy to the vital mission of strengthening competitiveness for economic growth and job creation in the Baltimore region and in Maryland.

  • When Andy Stack Moved to Columbia, Md., in 1977, The
    hen Andy Stack moved to Columbia, Md., in 1977, the planned community was a decade old and tens of thousands of residents strong. He thought it was a great place to live and work. Shops and walking Wtrails were nearby, new schools were popping up, and there was racial and economic diversity. It was convenient to Baltimore, Md., and Washington, D.C., and there was green space everywhere. Flash forward to the present as Columbia cel- ebrates its 50th birthday this year. The population now exceeds 100,000. Construction is under way on Downtown Columbia, a mixed-use development that eventually could encompass 5,500 residential units, 1 million square feet of retail space, 5 million square feet of offices, 640 hotel rooms, and a confer- ence center. BY STEVE BATES PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY BY ROBERT MERHAUT GoodAS 18 x COMMON GROUND JANUARY FEBRUARY 2017 Gold©2017 Community Associations Insitute Columbia, Md., was developed 50 years ago to be a new town that would represent the best of America. That ideal still holds true for one of the country’s first master-planned common- interest communities—even as it continues to grow. JANUARY FEBRUARY 2017 COMMON GROUND x 19 ©2017 Community Associations Insitute Stack isn’t alone in thinking that Columbia has accomplished something. In 2016, Money magazine ranked it as the best small U.S. city to live. “Columbia, Md., turns 50 next year, and it’s never looked better,” says the article. What makes Columbia special? In part, it’s the open space that was set aside during Columbia’s planning in the 1960s—a whopping 3,600 acres of it.

  • Gentrification on the Planetary Urban Frontier: the Evolution of Turner’S Noösphere
    Gentrification on the Planetary Urban Frontier: The Evolution of Turner’s Noösphere Elvin Wyly Abstract: As capitalist urbanization evolves, so too does gentrification. Theories and experiences that have anchored the reference points of gentrification in the Global North for half a century are now rapidly evolving into more cosmopolitan, dynamic world urban systems of variegated gentrifications. These trends seem to promise a long-overdue postcolonial provincialization of the entrenched Global North bias of urban theory. Yet there is a jarring paradox between the material realities of some of the largest non-military urban displacements in human history in the Global South, alongside a growing reluctance to ‘impose’ Northern languages, theories, and politics of gentrification to understand these processes. In this paper, I negotiate this paradox through an engagement of several seemingly unrelated empirical trends and theoretical debates in urban studies and gentrification. My central argument is that interdependent yet partially autonomous developments in urban entrepreneurialism and transnational markets in labor, real estate, and education are transcending the dichotomy between gentrification in cities (the traditional focus of so much place-based research) versus gentrification as a dimension of planetary urbanization. Amidst the planetary technological transformations now celebrated as “cognitive capitalism” and a communications-consciousness “noösphere,” these developments are coalescing into a global, cosmopolitan, and multicultural

Rouse wanted to use Merriweather Post Pavilion and the Mall in Columbia to build a strong Baltimore suburb. Today, Columbia is being transformed into its own city, with the goal of being another option for millennials and young workers, as well as empty nesters. The topic was front and center at the Baltimore Business Journal’s Future of Columbia event on May 20 at the Sheraton Columbia Town ANDREW WINDHAM Center. The discussion was the second in the BBJ’s “Future Of” From left: BBJ reporter Melody Simmons, Asheel Shah, Allan Kittleman, Peter Garver, Greg Fitchitt and series. The first, Future of South Baltimore, was held earlier this year. Karen Cherry. Several leaders involved in Howard County’s development gathered at the event to participate in a panel discussion about the changes in Columbia. The panel, moderated by the BBJ’s Melody Simmons, consisted of Howard County Executive Allan Kittleman; Asheel Shah, the president of multi-family housing at Kettler; Peter Garver, the president of Garver Development; Greg Fitchitt, vice president of development at Howard Hughes Corp.; and Karen Cherry, a vice president at Howard Hughes Corp. The wide-ranging discussion touched on the current construction in Columbia, the balance of attracting both millennials and baby boomers, and the potential impact this development will have on current residents.

  • 302 E West Street Baltimore, MD 21230 This Evening to Testify In
    Sarah Lane 302 E West Street Baltimore, MD 21230 Good evening, Council Chairman Ball and members of the County Council. My name is Sarah Lane, and I live in Federal Hill, and I work in Columbia. I am here this evening to testify in support of both the Joint Recommendations on Affordable Housing and on the public financing for roads and public parking garage. My support for the legislation is personal. I would like the option of being able to live in an affordable apartment in an area that includes restaurants and shopping and things to do within walking distance. It would be great if that affordable apartment didn't require me to spend so much time on 95 going to and from work. I like my job in Columbia, but rent isn't the only reason I don't live here. Columbia is primarily a suburban community which is great for families but not as attractive to people my age. We prefer a more urban style of living with many more activities and people around. That is in the plans for Downtown Columbia, and the sooner the better. I can see that Downtown Columbia is becoming more interesting and attractive to young professionals like me. Merriweather's renovation is exciting and more is to come. I look forward to what the future holds for Downtown Columbia and encourage you to support legislation that includes mixed income apartment complexes and will increase the momentum of development by financing new roads and a public parking garage for Merriweather. Thank you. PTA COUNCIL OF HOWARD COUNTY 9/22/2016 PTA Council of Howard County, MD (PTACHC) serves

Please only click on links or attachments if you know the sender.] Good day to you, I'm writing to ask for a full hearted, unanimous approval of TA01-FY2021, creating affordable and vibrant housing options for Columbia. Our area has experienced rapid growth and regardless of one's stance on such growth, we can all say it's been for those who can afford upper to high end housing. The opportunities Columbia offers to enjoy a multicultural community is precious and should be available to all people, especially those typically shut out due to social and financial status. This project gives a wonderful opportunity to balance that biased structure.
