It includes high- and low-rise apartments, condos, row houses, and single-family homes. Few neigh- borhoods in Baltimore City have such varied housing stock or density. This architectural diversity is positive, but it can create issues that divide us. Our strength has been that we all support one another when a particular need in one part of our neighborhood becomes a serious issue. Calvert School's current request for approval to demolish Castalia, to raise the cap on enrollment at the school, and to tear down the former fraternity house at 3906 Canterbury and build an addition on that site to the school's cur- rent facility challenges our unity. Some Tuscany-Canterbury residents are Board of Directors deeply concerned about the Castalia issue; others believe that the main issue is Andrew Joseph (A. J.)
