As students explore the map online, you will note the following color coding system: ü Modern Sites are yellow ü Sites Then and Now are green ü Poe-era sites are red In addition, all locations include images. Modern Sites Modern Inner Harbor (Harborplace) NOW: Harborplace is a fairly recent addition to Baltimore’s landscape. Completed in 1980, Harborplace and its close relatives, the Maryland Science Center and the National Aquarium at Baltimore, have attracted millions of visitors to the city each year. If you were wondering why Harborplace appears to be out in the harbor on the 1838 map…it’s because it was! As late as 1950, the Inner Harbor was just that – the innermost dock in Baltimore Harbor for passenger, freight, and government ships. But the docks were old and rotting, so around 1970 the city tore them down. The plans for developing the shopping pavilions at Harborplace called for more space. The city did just that—using concrete and pylons to add almost 100 feet of shoreline where the rotting docks had been. The result was the Inner Harbor area – complete with shops and large pathways – that you can walk around today. THEN: In Poe’s day, the Inner Harbor area was a thriving seaport. Ships were being built in nearby Fells Point. A new, lively form of transportation— called a “steamer” (a steam-powered boat)—was becoming a more and more common sight.

  • Lexington Market: 1800S
    LEARNINGLEARNING FR OM LEXINGTONLEXINGTON Lexington Market: 1800s - 2017 EMAIL [email protected] VISIT preservingplaces.wordpress.com Learning from Lexington is a UMBC course where students research the history, culture, and stories of the iconic Lexington Market, a public market located in the westside of downtown Baltimore. Students are creating a series of public history zines and a ten-minute podcast exploring the rich history of the market and how it has continually changed with the city. At the Learning from Lexington free public event on Saturday, December 9, students will share their research with the public and celebrate the culture and stories of Baltimore’s Lexington Market. SAVE THE DATE: Sat. Dec. 9 from 2-4pm Lexington Room @ the LM 17821782 -- 18041804 The Lexington Market entrance sign reads “Since 1782.” However, the real story is a little different. In 1782, Col. John Eager Howard drew a plan of his land on Howard’s Hill which showed a market. It was not until 1803 that the legislature authorized selection of land for a market. In 1804, the city signed a long-term lease for Howard’s land and purchased some land from two other men. In 1818, the market was so successful that additional land was bought from the Howards. The market may have been John Eager Howard’s idea in 1782, but no market was built until the turn of the nineteenth century. 19001900 During the nineteenth century much of the Sun newspaper coverage of the Lexington Market focused on petty crime such as stealing, marauders, gang fights, and drunk folks passed out in the Market after hours.
