  • The Guy's Guide to Baltimore
    The Guy's Guide to Baltimore 101 Ways To Be A True Baltimorean! By Christina Breda Antoniades. Edited by Ken Iglehart. Let’s assume, for argument’s sake, that you’ve mastered the Baltimore lexicon. You know that “far trucks” put out “fars” and that a “bulled aig” is something you eat. You know the best places to park for O’s games, where the speed traps are on I-83, and which streets have synchronized traffic lights. You know how to shell a steamed crab. You never, EVER attempt to go downy ocean on a Friday evening in the dead of summer. And, let’s face it, you get a little upset when your friends from D.C. call you a Baltimoro… well, you know. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Do you really know all it takes to be a true Baltimorean? ¶ Here, we’ve compiled a list of the 101 activities, quirky habits, and oddball pastimes, that, even if you only did half of them, would earn you certification as a true Baltimorean. Some have stood the test of time, some are new favorites, but all are unique to Charm City. If you’re a grizzled native, you’ll probably find our list a fun test that takes you down memory lane. And if you’re new in town, the guide below will definitely help you to pass yourself off as a local. ¶ So, whether you’ve been here 60 days or 60 years, we’re sure you’ll find something new (or long forgotten) in the pages that follow.

  • Has the Retail Apocalypse Hit the DC Area?
    POLICY BRIEF Has the Retail Apocalypse Hit the DC Area? Leah Brooks, Urbashee Paul and Rachel Shank APRIL 2018 POLICY BRIEF APRIL 2018 | LEAH BROOKS, URBASHEE PAUL AND RACHEL SHANK1 In 1977, the White Flint Mall opened to great acclaim as Maryland’s premier mall, complete with glass elevators, glamorous anchor stores, and an exciting eatery. Now, more than four decades later, White Flint Mall is situated in a sea of empty parking lots. Except for anchor tenant Lord and Taylor, with which the mall owner is in protracted litigation, the mall sits empty. About a decade before White Flint launched, Northern Virginia’s Tysons Corner Center opened, also to acclaim. Tyson’s Corner has seen continued success,2 welcoming Apple’s flagship store in 2001,3 and Spanx’s first brick and mortar store in 2012.4 The promised increase in walkability ushered in by the Silver Line expansion has heralded opportunity for new residential and commercial development.5 To what extent is this divergence due to e-commerce? The Rise of E-commerce Indeed, there is substantial evidence that brick-and-mortar retail is suffering. CNN Money10 reports that 2017 marked E-commerce dates to 1994, when the New York Times the highest number of retail store closure announcements in reported that Philadelphia’s Phil Brandenberger used his history. Within the past year, once-prominent malls in computer to purchase a Sting album.

At an event last week in the State Dining Room of the White House announcing his departure, President Obama said Holder made revitalizing the Civil Rights Division at the Justice Department a priority because he believes it’s “the conscience of the building.” “And several years ago, he recommended that our government stop defending the Defense of Marriage Act — a decision that was vindicated by the Supreme Court, and opened the door to federal recognition of same-sex marriage, and federal benefi ts for same-sex couples,” Obama said. “It’s a pretty good track record.” The sense that LGBT rights had signifi cantly advanced during the administration was echoed by Holder in remarks that followed Obama’s. “We have begun to realize the promise of equality for our LGBT brothers and sisters and their families,” Holder said. ‘We have begun to realize the promise of equality for our LGBT brothers and sisters and their CONTINUES ON PAGE 12 families,’ said ERIC HOLDER.

Rapid transit systems which have been built in the modem era represent investments in a mode of transport that nearly all other political, economic, institutional, and regulatory factors have been aligned to defeat. However, construction of a rail transit network does provide the opportunity to re-orient metropolitan area development in a manner which will take advantage of the travel efficiencies afforded by this transit mode and affect regional travel behavior and quality of life.
