  • DRAFT - for Public Comment
    DRAFT - For Public Comment Baltimore Together A Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy DRAFT - For Public Comment August 2, 2021 1 DRAFT - For Public Comment Building the New Economy in Baltimore This economic development plan identifies critically important goals to strengthen Baltimore City’s economy and create new opportunities for residents and businesses. It outlines strategies and tactics for reaching those goals, and the Baltimore Together team hopes this document will serve as a call to action and roadmap for a range of partners over the next five years. If we choose not to adopt the strategies in this report and continue on our current path, the outcomes are bleak. The city will continue to experience extreme racial disparities. Small businesses will struggle. Residents will continue to leave the city, and neighborhoods will decline. Baltimore will miss the opportunity to lead in key sectors, forgoing significant economic benefits for its residents and tax base. We can and must do better. Please join us as we work to build a new, inclusive, and thriving economy in our city. Go to the Baltimore Together website and sign up to get involved. About Baltimore Together Baltimore Together is a public-private initiative led by the Baltimore Development Corporation to support the creation of a common vision of inclusive economic growth in our city. Through a thoughtful and intentional process, a diverse group of stakeholders developed a Baltimore Together vision: Baltimore will show the world how to create an urban economy that is based on diversity, inclusion, and resiliency and uplifts historically excluded Baltimoreans, while attracting investment, businesses, and people committed to contributing to an equitable economy.

  • View National Trust for Historic Preservation Best Practices
    Cover Memo DATE: MAY 17, 2018 TO: PHILADELPHIA HISTORIC PRESERVATION TASK FORCE FROM: NATIONAL TRUST FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION RE: HISTORIC PRESERVATION & BUILDING REUSE: BEST PRACTICES RESEARCH Dear Task Force Members: As Technical Advisor to the Mayor Kenney’s Historic Preservation Task Force, the National Trust for Historic Preservation is providing the attached revised summaries of a select group of Best Practices as requested by the Task Force Sub-Committees. This in-depth research builds upon 2-3 months of preliminary research performed in the fall of 2017, presented to the Task Force in mid-January, and available on the Task Force website https://www.phlpreservation.org/. The National Trust undertook an additional 8-week research project to better understand and evaluate a refined list of Best Practices in four core areas – Survey, Outreach + Education, Incentives, and Regulation. Focused primarily, but not exclusively, on the Peer Cities identified earlier in the Task Force proceedings (Chicago, St. Louis, New York, Baltimore, Buffalo, and New Orleans), the National Trust’s Team conducted interviews with public agencies and local non-profits in each Peer City. Based on these interviews, extensive on-line research, and targeted outreach to preservation, public policy, and development professionals, as well as feedback from the Task Force subcommittees on initial drafts, the National Trust prepared the attached summaries of selected Best Practices. Included is an analysis identifying and articulating the benefits, challenges, applicability, funding, staffing requirements, and regulatory framework required for each of these Best Practices to succeed. Based on two rounds and nearly five months of intensive research by a team of eight multi-disciplinary professionals, the National Trust found that there is no “silver bullet” for historic preservation.

  • The Painted Path in the Bromo Arts & Entertainment District
    Application PDF Bromo Tower Arts & Entertainment, Inc The Painted Path in the Bromo Arts & Entertainment District Request: $35,000.00 Baltimore National Total Match: $35,000.00 Baltimore City PROJECT TITLE: The Painted Path in the Bromo Arts & Entertainment District PROJECT SUMMARY: The grant and matching funds will cover all costs associated with the expansive creative wayfinding project, which includes: hiring a public art agency, Graham Projects, to plan and design the installations with community input; installing 18 major sidewalk artworks and roughly 70 wayfinding markers; all materials; hiring subcontractors; and City permits. Please see the attachments for the detailed budget outline and Graham Projects estimate. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Project Description The Painted Path will connect historic heritage and modern cultural sites through creative wayfinding to engage visitors and increase tourism in the Bromo Arts & Entertainment District (The District). Community input will guide the planning and design of site-specific sidewalk artwork at 18 main sites that will be connected by a wayfinding path of up to 70 markers. Community volunteers will paint the final piece of sidewalk art, marking the completion of the project. The Painted Path is a self-guided walking tour, drawing visitors to significant District sites and allowing these sites to interpret their own heritage and cultural history. Will any aspects of the project cause ground disturbance (utility lines, footings, underpinnings, grading, signage installation, etc.)? No. The sidewalk artwork will only be applied to sidewalk and street surfaces and will not cause any ground disturbance. Do any aspects of the project have potential to disturb lead paint, asbestos, oil tanks, or other hazardous materials? No.

  • Market Analysis A. the Industry
    PLAY Market Analysis A. The Industry Baltimore’s cultural, entertainment, and natural amenities are enjoyed by the residents in the Baltimore region as well as national and international tourists. In 2004, 11.79 million visitors from outside the Baltimore region explored the many attractions our City has to offer. In addition, 3.97 million visitors liv- ing in the Baltimore region, but outside Baltimore City, visited Baltimore. Of course, the 650,000 Baltimore City residents also enjoyed Baltimore’s numer- ous cultural, entertainment, and natural resource amenities. These amenities provide activities for all segments of the population, from youth and families to the elderly. The following discussion focuses on the market for Baltimore’s cultural, entertainment, and natural amenities, with emphasis on our customer base, market size, and trends. Heritage and Cultural Resources Baltimore’s heritage and cultural tourism industry provides place-based, unique experiential products that range from large, world-renowned attractions and events to small, locally celebrated attractions and events. The heritage and cultural tourism industry provides products within three broad areas: visual arts, including art museums, galleries, schools, studios, architecture and archi- tecture-related events; performing arts, including theater, art cinema, dance, and music; and historical and cultural resources, including history museums, literary events, bus and walking tours, and historic districts.1 These resources provide life-enriching experiences that are attracting a larger number of visitors who are generally over the age of 40. Heritage and Cultural tourism is expanding its products, especially in the African American niche market. In addition, visitation to historic and culturally rich neighborhoods is increasing.

    The Society for American City and Regional Planning History Presents the s . a . c . r . p . h . Tremont Plaza Hotel Baltimore, MD November 17 – 20, 2011 baltimore 2011 Fourteenth National Conference on Planning History Preliminary Program Society for American City and Regional Planning History November 17-20, 2011 Baltimore, Maryland On behalf of the SACRPH Program Committee, our Local Arrangements Committee, and all those who have worked hard to get us ready for the biennial conference, we welcome you to Baltimore for the 14th National Conference on Planning History. This year marks the 25th anniversary of SACRPH’s founding, and we are delighted to see that the organization continues to grow and diversify. The 2009 conference boasted a record number of sessions—54 of them—but 2011 brought in unprecedented numbers of proposals, yielding a program that has now expanded to 74 paper sessions. For the first time, we have extended the regular portion of the program into Sunday. The conference has grown larger, but this is not because the Program Committee reduced standards. All paper and panel proposals were read and rated by at least 3 different members of the Committee, and we accepted only those with high rankings. Fortunately, paper quality seems to be keeping pace with the growth of the organization. Although have added many more sessions, we have not shortened them or crowded in more presenters. Instead, we have kept to SACRPH’s traditional emphasis on permitting time for discussion, by endeavoring to give 3-paper sessions 105 minutes, and 4-paper sessions a full two hours.
