  • PS 103 Landmark Report.Pdf
    Baltimore City Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation Landmark Designation Report June 11, 2013 Public School No. 103 —Henry Highland Garnet School 1315 Division Street Baltimore, Maryland The content of this report is from A Plan for PS103 – Thurgood Marshall’s Elementary School Prepared for the Mayor‟s Commission on Former PS103 under the auspices of the Baltimore National Heritage Area, Point Heritage Consulting, October 31, 2010. Summary PS103, a landmark in the Upton community of West Baltimore, is significant to Baltimore for its architecture and the important role that it played in the history of education in the city. It was designed by prominent architect George Frederick in 1877 to serve white children, and in its form met the best practices for the design of school buildings, a design that is still retained today. In 1911, it became a school for African American children, earning a reputation as one of the city‟s finest. This school played an important role in the education of thousands of children in West Baltimore, including Thurgood Marshall, who later became a leader in the desegregation of the nation‟s public school system, as well as for his service as the first African American Justice on the Supreme Court of the United States. PS 103 is significant for the role that it played in the education of African American students prior to desegregation, and for its architecture. History The school at 1315 Division Street was constructed by order of Baltimore‟s Board of School Commissioners between 1876 and 1877 to address overcrowding in the Male and Female Grammar School No.

  • A History of the Adoption of the Maryland Executive Budget Amendment by Richard E
    A History of the Adoption of the Maryland Executive Budget Amendment By Richard E. Israel March 5, 2004 Annapolis, Maryland (This paper will be posted in the near future on the archivesofmaryland.net website of the Maryland State Archives) 1 I. Introduction In 1904 the General Assembly appropriated $1,000 for a tombstone for and a portrait of Governor Thomas G. Pratt whose three-year term as governor expired in 1848 and who died in 1869. The tombstone that marks the former governor’s grave in St. Anne’s Cemetery on College Creek in Annapolis has this singular inscription: “He saved the credit and upheld the honor of this State.” This remarkable tribute in granite honors executive leadership that was instrumental in averting insolvency when the state was unable to repay the money it had borrowed to invest in the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, and other works of internal improvement in the 1820s and 1830s. One result of this financial crisis was the adoption of the debt clause of the 1851 Constitution which, then and now, limits the legislature’s power to create debt by requiring that bond bills levy a tax for their redemption. In seeking support for the appropriation to honor the memory of Governor Pratt, the chief sponsor, Delegate Edward Goslin of Caroline County, referred to the former governor’s imperishable work which was the cornerstone of the state’s prosperity at the beginning of the twentieth century. However, eight years after making this speech, Mr. Goslin was serving as a member of the Maryland Senate and was warning that history was about to repeat itself.

We are so excited to have you back in Charm City for the first annual Baltimore Homecoming. We are grateful to the hundreds of leaders from across Baltimore – reverends and educators, artists and business executives, activists and philanthropists – who joined together to organize this event. We each have our own memories of Baltimore – a humid summer afternoon or spring ballgame, a favorite teacher or a first job. We hope that you take time while you’re home to reconnect with your past and savor the city – catch up with friends and family, drop by a favorite restaurant, or visit an old neighborhood. Reconnecting is the first step. But our deeper hope is that you begin to forge a new relationship to the city. Whether you left five years ago or fifty, Baltimore has evolved. The Baltimore of today has a dynamic real estate market and budding technology sector. Our artists are leading the national conversation on race and politics. Our nonprofit entrepreneurs are on the cutting-edge of social change. The Port of Baltimore is one of the fastest growing in the U.S. The city’s growth has emerged from and complemented our historic pillars of strength – a rich cultural heritage, world-class research institutions, strategic geographic location, and beautiful waterfront. Baltimore faces significant challenges that we cannot ignore: segregation, entrenched poverty, crime and violence.

    History of Transit Organization in the Baltimore Region Transit Agencies and Service Development in the Baltimore Region OVERVIEW The Baltimore Regional Transit Governance and Funding Study will develop alternatives for how the region could structure, organize, and fund regional transit services. The approach to developing these alternatives includes working with the Baltimore Regional Transit Board (BRTB) through an iterative process of research, analysis, and stakeholder input to ensure that the alternatives are grounded in experience, respectful of history and constraints, but creative enough to recognize opportunities. This technical memo, the first in the series, focuses on the history and development of transit services in the Baltimore Region. The first step involves focusing on the history and development of transit Image from Creative Commons: ETLamborghini services in the Baltimore region to understand how the existing service network came to be and provides the context for why some regional services are operated by the Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) and others by Locally Operated Transit Systems (LOTS). Our goal is that by understanding the historical perspective, we will understand the transit network, its origins and evolution and its current form. The overview and historical perspective include the development and evolution of: • State leadership for local transit services in the City of Baltimore. • State leadership for regional transit services, including the MARC commuter rail system and the Commuter Bus program.
