  • CAPSULE SUMMARY BA-3069 Catonsville Post Office 1001 Frederick Road Catonsville, Baltimore County Ca
    CAPSULE SUMMARY BA-3069 Catonsville Post Office 1001 Frederick Road Catonsville, Baltimore County ca. 1935 Public The circa 1935 Catonsville Post Office represents a high-style interpretation of the Colonial Revival style in public buildings constructed by the Public Works Administration during the New Deal. The construction of the post office occurred during Catonsville's period of expansion from a small village to a Baltimore City suburb during the first half of the 20th century. The Catonsville Post Office, located on the southwest corner of the intersection of Frederick Road and Sanford and Melvin Avenues is in the heart of the growing suburban town. The setting of the post office has changed over the last fifty years as the Frederick Road corridor, especially the area around the intersection at which the post office is located, has expanded to become a main transportation route to and from the city of Baltimore. The one-story, Flemish bond brick masonry building rests on a foundation of roughly cut and coursed stone veneer over poured concrete. The hipped roof, clad in slate tiles, rises steeply from the eaves then levels off at the top to a flat or shallow-hipped roof. One central interior Flemish bond brick chimney rises through the roof near the west elevation and terminates in a stone chimney cap. The original main block of the building is five bays wide and three bays deep. A projecting entry portal with a hipped roof and cupola dominates the facade. Two alterations to the building include a one-story, three-bay deep, five-bay wide Flemish bond brick masonry addition to the south elevation and a one-story, one-bay wide, six-bay deep loading dock addition to the west elevation.

  • Mayor and City Council of Baltimore V. Baltimore and Philadelphia Steamboat Company, 65 A. 353, 104 Md. 485 (Dec
    Mayor and City Council of Baltimore v. Baltimore and Philadelphia Steamboat Company, 65 A. 353, 104 Md. 485 (Dec. 19, 1906) Russell K. George I. INTRODUCTION Mayor and City Council of Baltimore v. Baltimore and Philadelphia Steamboat Company1 concerns the condemnation by the City of Baltimore of properties owned by the Baltimore and Philadelphia Steamboat Company ("BPSC"). After the Great Fire of 1904, which destroyed most of the Baltimore business district, the City embarked on an effort to make various urban improvements. Among other things, the City endeavored to widen Pratt Street fifty feet to the south by condemning wharves at the corner of Light and Pratt Streets that were owned and leased by the Steamboat Company.2 The Burnt District Commission awarded the Company minimal damages for the property that was condemned, and instead assessed benefits against the Company for the widening of Pratt Street.3 The Company appealed to the Baltimore City Circuit Court, where Judge Henry Stockbridge essentially reversed the Commission awards, giving the Company much more compensation than it initially received. Both the City and the Company cross- appealed. The Maryland Court of Appeals rendered its decision on December 19, 1906, affirming Stockbridge's awards. The case represents a microcosm of the improvement efforts in Baltimore following the fire. The litigation pursued by the Steamboat Company shows how property owners posed an obstacle to urban improvements. Christine Rosen discusses this in The Limits of Power: Great Fires and the Process of City Growth in America, 1 65 A. 353 (1906). 2 See Diagram, attached. 1 concluding that the progressive nature of Baltimore, which had developed prior to the fire,4 helped the City to overcome various obstacles to change, including private property ownership and political deadlock.5 In addition, the case presents issues concerning the condemnation value of waterfront property, particularly the value of certain riparian rights and the question of whether they are to be included in the fair market value of the property.

  • History of Baltimore, 1729-1920
    History of Baltimore, 1729-1920 By Joseph L. Arnold With chapter introductions by Elizabeth M. Nix Introduction to Chapter 1 From Tobacco Landing to Port City, 1729-1797 by Elizabeth M. Nix How did Baltimore grow from a tiny hamlet in 1730 to the third most populous city in the nation in 1800? Joseph Arnold answers this question in the opening chapter of his sweeping account of two hundred years of Baltimore history. Arnold convincingly argues that Baltimore's success was not due to one charismatic individual who had a compelling vision or to an enthusiastic band of boosters who charted a pragmatic plan for economic growth. Rather, Arnold shows readers that the town’s success as a speculative settlement was birthed almost by the land itself. Arnold paints a picture of the gradual elevations that surrounded the harbor on the Chesapeake Bay, which seemed to provide an efficient route for tobacco rolling roads. When farmers exported their cured leaves to Europe in the 1730s and 1740s, Baltimore jostled for their business with many other tobacco landings along the basin. Arnold demonstrates the advantages of Baltimore’s location in the critical 1750s, when many nearby farmers switched to wheat as a cash crop. The swift streams that flowed into the harbor provided waterpower for grain mills, a crucial piece of the flour supply chain that demanded that farmers process cereal grains before they shipped them. In his comparisons to other fledgling towns in the Mid-Atlantic, Arnold points out that in the Baltimore region farmers could operate most efficiently. They grew their crops in the hinterland, hauled them to Baltimore for milling and then put their sacks of flour on ships that sailed directly to the West Indies and western Europe.

DESCRIPTORS *English; Gr&mmar; Higher Education; *Language Attitudes; *Language Usage; *Lexicology; Linguistics; *Semantics; *Vocabulary IDENTIFIERS Words ABSTRACT This book contains 25 essays about English words, and how they are defined, valued, and discussed. The book is divided into four sections. The first section, "Language Lore," examines some of the myths and misconceptions that affect attitudes toward language--and towards English in particular. The second section, "Language Usage," examines some specific questions of meaning and usage. Section 3, "Language Trends," examines some controversial r trends in English vocabulary, and some developments too new to have received comment before. The fourth section, "Language Politics," treats several aspects of linguistic politics, from special attempts to deal with the ethnic, religious, or sex-specific elements of vocabulary to the broader issues of language both as a reflection of the public consciousness and the U.S. Constitution and as a refuge for the most private forms of expression.
