Storm drain screens to be installed in Patterson Park BY GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM
This week, the greening partnership of Patterson Park unveiled the Clean City Guide, a booklet outlining the best trash removal and recycling options for residents. “We wanted to have, all in one spot, all your trash disposal information. If you don’t know how many trash cans you’re allowed to have, if you need to know where to dispose of your mattress, if you need to know how to organize a clean-up, you can find everything in this booklet,” said Teresa Carter Wotring, the chair of the greening committee. She said that a good amount of the trash on the neighborhoods’ streets comes from new residents who don’t know proper disposal procedures. The guide, which is “made by neighbors for neighbors”, contains information on rat abatement, recycling, drop-off centers, 311 services, and fine and coding enforcement. The guide was sponsored by the Baltimore Community Foundation and has been in the works for a year and a half. It comes in both English and Spanish. CONTINUED ON PAGE 19

1971 and are outdated as well as irrelevant to the current state of the city. The process has been so lengthy due to a line-by-line review of the legislation from the Land Use and Transportation Committee and over 30 public meetings. The modern code was developed to help ease the development process for new businesses and investors and improving the management of transit-orientated areas. One of the most debated parts of the new zoning is an amendment that would reduce the number of “non-conforming” liquor stores in residential neighborhoods. These liquor stores are allowed to operate because they were issued a liquor license before the current zoning code, which would not allow them to operate, was put into place. They were essentially grandfathered in, a privilege the new zoning would take away. Many Southeast residents also have expressed concerns over one amendment that would allow developers to increase the allowable height limit of buildings along and near the waterfront from the current 35 feet up to 100 feet. For example, the new code has streets such as Aliceanna, Boston, and Fleet designated as C-1, which allows a height of 60 ft. Many worry that this will block residents’ views of the water and allow developers to ruin the landscape of the neighborhoods. One new proposed designation for a building is called Neighborhood Commercial, which is a commercial space in a residential space – like allowing a conforming gas station to be built near an apartment complex. The goal is to allow people to have jobs they can walk to from their home. This will take cars off the road and eliminate the growing need for parking. This will also be accomplished by placing high-density residential areas along mass transit lines. This designation would also allow vacant buildings to be reused as commercial locations, preferably for local businesses and artisans. Other amendments include measures that would restrict the areas where mega-stores and other big-box stores can be built, outline stricter rules for banquet halls and college dormitories, and preserve open public space. “The new code seeks to create a balance between the economic engines of the past and present and those anticipated in the coming years. Our goal is to preserve and enhance the long-term economic health of the City of Baltimore well into the 21st century. As a result, the Industrial section of the new zoning code has been updated and a number of new,

more flexible industrial districts have been created. With new tools, the City of Baltimore will be able to preserve existing businesses while accommodating new types of industry in the future,” states the Transform Baltimore code. The City Council will begin to vote on the 1,000 amendments over the next few weeks. The new code will go into effect 6 months after it is approved by the council and signed by the mayor. “Baltimore is a unique and special place that deserves a dynamic set of tools to promote exciting new development opportunities and to preserve the character of our many vibrant neighborhoods. The new zoning code will help get Baltimore growing again in new and creative ways,” said Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, who is likely to pass the amendment. The public is encouraged to attend a number of public meetings by the Land Use and Transportation Committee to look at the possible zoning changes of their neighborhoods. The next meeting, which will primarily focus on changes to the Southeast, will take place on Wednesday, October 21 at 6 p.m. at the Southeast Anchor Library located at 3601 Eastern Ave. The zoning code proposal is long, over 300 pages, and complex. The City Planning Department has maps online where you can click your location and it will tell you the changes and specification of the new codes. To see how the Southeast will be impacted, visit the map at cityview.baltimorecity.gov/ RezoningPublicComments/rezoningse.htm. For an overview of TransForm Baltimore, visit www.rewritebaltimore.org.

Entire Highlandtown block for sale by GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM
It was announced last week that the block of buildings at 3901 to 3927 E. Lombard St. in Highlandtown would be available for purchase by developers who want to revitalize the area. The block is between Grundy and Fagley Sts. “It’s an entire city block which is very rare in Baltimore City and especially Highlandtown. It’s an area ripe for redevelopment. It’s extremely rare to have an entire fully leased and assembled parcel for sale, especially one containing an iconic restaurant,” said Joseph Scalia, the attorney and broker who is handling the space. The iconic restaurant mentioned is Bud Paolino’s which was opened in 1946 and became a gathering place for politicians and celebrities. The Paolino family still owns the property and wants to sell the block to one buyer. The property was listed with a price of $3.2 million.
The 19,000 square foot property is leased and occupied by various business, like a Mexican restaurant and a reception hall. There are also apartments and “mini suites” on the block. Scalia said this presents a great opportunity for redevelopment and positive cashflow. “This is not a distress sale. The entire block is completely leased out and occupied. The parcel includes bars, restaurants, a clothing store, and several residential units as well as the 8,000 square foot Bud Paolino’s site. It’s a great property as it is – but the rare opportunity to redevelop an entire parcel is the icing on the cake. Its location in the very popular Highlandtown neighborhood, its proximity to bus routes and major employers makes it a developer’s dream site,” said Scalia. For more information of the property, visit www.theentireblock.com.

H&S Bakery to expand The H&S Bakery in Fell’s Point at 601 S. Caroline St. was given permission to expand their warehouse by 25,000 feet. The location controls the distribution, production, and delivery of the products. The bakery is hoping to speed up the delivery of their fresh bread by turning a parking lot into a warehouse which will house 21 tractor-trailers. Currently, the facility holds 12 tractor-trailers. The expansion will increase the total square footage of the property to 62,000. H&S had to receive approval by the city’s historic preservation committee. One of the stipulations of the approval is that only 5 of the trailer bays can be placed on Fleet St. due to concerns about traffic impediment. “This reinvestment in the facility and commitment to Fell’s Point is of upmost
importance to H&S, as it has proudly called the neighborhood home for over 50 years. We look forward to continuing the discussion with the community and with all stakeholders and are confident the design plans will deliver in both function and style,” stated H&S in a press release. The cost of the expansion will be approximately $10 million. It is unknown when the renovation will begin, but residents were warned of temporary closures on Dallas St. H&S has five bakeries all over Baltimore, including one in Highlandtown. The Fell’s Point location employees between 300-350 people. Last year, a part of the H&S distribution was moved to the Hollander Ridge neighborhood in east Baltimore due to ongoing development in Harbor East.

Baltimore McDonald’s donate 25% of profits to Ronald McDonald house by GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM
On Thursday, October 15, all the McDonald’s in Baltimore city donated 25% of the money raised that day to the Ronald McDonald House Charities. A kick-off event was held at the McDonald’s at 6500 Eastern Ave., where families from the Ronald McDonald house gathered to share their stories. This was the first collective event in Baltimore. October 15 was also the 41st anniversary of the opening of the first Ronald McDonald house in Philadelphia. Over 130 McDonald’s citywide participated in the day’s event. The Ronald McDonald house at W. Lexington St. is for families that have traveled to Baltimore to receive medical treatment for rare or unknown illnesses. “The Baltimore house is maybe one of the best, most significant houses in the United States because of the excellent health care we have in and around the Baltimore area,” said Joe Cox, the operator of the Eastern Ave. McDonald’s and a board member of the Ronald McDonald House Charities. Cox said that many families can’t afford the transportation and hotel costs so the Ronald McDonald houses work to create a comforting and safe environment for the already stressed out families. “Since 1982, Baltimore has opened their hearts to us, providing invaluable support to help over 35,000 families find comfort at a critical moment in their lives - the moment when their lives shift to focus on the one thing that matters most,
healing their sick child,” said Sandy Pagnotti, the president and CEO of the Ronald McDonald House of Baltimore. However, the Baltimore location only has approximately 30 rooms that are always filled and are not enough for all the families in need. Cox said the hardest part is turning away dozens of people every day due to lack of space. The money raised during this Day of Care will work to increase the capacity of the current house as well as opening a new location next to Johns Hopkins Hospital on Orleans St. “We provide a home away from home. We provide free transportation to the hospitals with our shuttle. Families can stay with other families who are going through what they’re going through. There’s that major connection that is developed,” said Erin Bradley, a worker at the Ronald McDonald House. Three families from all corners of the country attended the celebration. Ronald McDonald was on hand with magic tricks and delicious goodies for the children. Ronald, however, was upstaged by 9-year-old Nathan Pittorf who showed off his best Elvis Presley impression. Pagnotti said that last week, an Elvis impersonator made a surprise appearance at the Ronald McDonald house and played pool and sang with Nathan. “It’s about interaction and relating with the families and making sure the children have good memories to look back on when they’re going through the tougher times,” said Cox.

The saying goes: One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. However, for Kevin Bernhard and Kinsley Ross, there is no trash, only treasure that requires a little bit of elbow grease or just hasn’t found the perfect owner yet. This philosophy is what inspired the opening of their antique boutique, Rust-N-Shine, which held its grand opening on Saturday, October 17. Rust-N-Shine, located in Highlandtown at 3522 Bank St., sells hidden gems from consignment shops, auctions, estate sales, and even the back of their friends’ messy attics. Both Ross and Bernhard take a discerning eye on their thrifting adventures, looking for items that appeal to the general aesthetic of their neighborhood. “If it looks good, that is all that matters.
We’re gearing everything towards what is..,” starts Bernhard. “…functional and usable,” Ross finishes his sentence. They look for items with the mid-century style – meaning with simple, clean lines and minimal details. The pieces must also be adaptable and able to be paired up with other items. “Not everybody can afford to go to the stores down in Harbor East. If anything, I would say this is a more quality product because it’s lasted this long. It’s not Ikea furniture, it’s not going to fall apart and you
Highlandtown boutique uncovers quirky treasures don’t have to put it together,” said Ross, as she leans against a mint green electric fireplace. In Rust-N-Shine, there’s everything from a vintage bowling pin, to hand-painted mugs, to stained glass lamp shades, to a life-sized plastic swordfish. It looks like your normal thrift store from afar, but when you get close to the items, you can easily picture them in a quirky Cantonite’s home or in the front of a trendy boutique. Rust-N-Shine will also display artwork from local artists like the Baltimore Print Studio. “They both live in the area. The stuff they pick up has an eye to what will fit in a Highlandtown rowhouse which is not always what the rest of the world supplies,” said Peggy Ross, Kinsley’s mother, who was helping set up the shop for the opening. Her daughter added that a lot of items sold in big-name retailers wouldn’t even be able to fit through the front door of her house. But the products won’t be there for long. The items at the store are priced-tosell and will routinely
change based on whatever Ross and Bernhard can dig up. It’s impossible to describe what they will sell once the current stock is gone because not even Ross and Bernhard know. The pair met through their mutual love of thrifting and consignment. “We both have a slight addiction to collecting things,” said Bernhard. He laughs and says that as long as he has a room where the floor is visible, then his hobby cannot be considered hoarding. Ross nods in agreement. Once word got out about the shop, people started coming out of the woodwork to give the pair their items. For example, hanging from the roof are elegant angular lamps made with Plexiglass that contrast with the simplicity of the other stock. Bernhard said these lamps were actually reproductions created for a play at Center Stage. Ross then pulls out a small box containing brooches and jewelry from her grandmother. The jewelry, such as turtle earrings made of turquoise, looks as good as new. Sometimes an item comes in with a few imperfections, like a missing button or a little bit of rust. Luckily, both Bernhard and Ross are not inexperienced with refurnishing. An example is when Ross points out a small chrome cabinet from the early 80s. She said she added a wooden butcher’s block to it for a modern twist and more counter space for those with limited living space. She learned these skills by watching her mother work on projects as she grew up. “She grew up with crap around the house that was turned into new usable crap. So I guess she picked up on a few things,” jokes Peggy. Bernhard’s father was also a handyman, so he grew up refurbishing, repairing, and rewiring. “We’re trying to keep it local and keep it affordable for everybody. It’s great for us and I think it’s great for the neighborhood. I’m getting tired of walking around and seeing vacant storefronts,” said Bernhard.

4-year-old survivor works to end cancer in kids
Ladies, have you scheduled your mammogram yet? Medical experts agree that early detection is a woman’s best defense in overcoming breast cancer. In fact, the National Breast Cancer Foundation reports that when breast cancer is detected in the early, localized stage,the five-year survival rate is 98 percent.The organization encourages every woman to develop an early detection plan consisting of breast selfexams, clinical breast exams and mammograms based on age and health history. To learn how to perform a monthly breast self-exam, go to www.nationalbreast cancer.org or consult your healthcare professional. A family physician or gynecologist should perform a clinical breast exam as part of an annual visit, and can advise women on the frequency of mammography scheduling.
We salute our local business community’s commitment to a cure!

Claire Russell was a typical 4-year-old girl. She loved singing and dancing, My Little Pony, gymnastics, and wearing bows and flowery headbands. But it wasn’t until her and her family’s lives drastically changed last year that her bravery and resilience was revealed. Claire was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma, a rare form of cancer, shortly after she turned 4 years-old. She had been complaining of back pain when the doctor discovered the tumor near her ribs. She went through 17 rounds of chemotherapy throughout the year as well as a surgery to remove four of her ribs and part of her spine at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Claire went into remission on May 14, 2015. During her treatment, Claire retained her sunny outlook and loving disposition.

“She never once complained and asked why this was happening to her. She just endured and made her way through it. She made the best of it,” said Michelle Russell, Claire’s mother. Messages of love and support came pouring in from those following her on the Facebook page “Prayer for Claire.” At 5 months in remission, Claire and her family want to give back to all those who helped her during her recovery. The family is hosting a fundraiser to raise money for the research of Ewing’s Sarcoma on Wednesday, November 4. Russell said this type of cancer has very little information and research around it because it’s so uncommon. Because of this lack of knowledge, many people are misdiagnosed or don’t receive proper care. The fundraiser was made possible due to the kindness of Scott Connor, a mechanic at Holabird Tire & Auto Service. During Claire’s treatment, her parent’s truck broke down. A different service station, quoted $10,000 for the repairs, a large chunk of change that the struggling family didn’t have to spare. When they went to Connor for a second opinion, he was moved by Claire’s story. He told them that not only were the repairs much cheaper than they thought, but that he would do them for free.
“We were just absolutely speechless. It went from a really bad situation to something great that showed there are really good people in the world,” said Russell. Connor helped get the fundraiser off the ground. The event will be at the Hard Yacht Cafe in Dundalk at 8500 Cove Road from 3-9 p.m. There will be live music, silent auctions, and raffles. Russell even said that Claire might even sing. All the money raised will be donated to Johns Hopkins University to be used for research. “Most five-year-olds fear a made-up monster under the bed. My five-year-old has stared a real monster in the face. Five months later it’s something she thinks about on a Sunday morning, while watching cartoons. About how she fought a monster that kills 7 children in the United States everyday. About how her sweet friend was taken by this monster. Childhood cancer doesn’t stop when treatment ends. We will fight this monster forever,” said Russell. For more information on Claire and her story, visit www.facebook.com/Prayersfor ClaireRose.

BIRDS HOUSE
BY ANDY MINDZAK
Putting your money where your mouth is With the Baltimore Orioles’ season now over, it is now time to take a look at their winter, which will be busy being as they have lots of things to address. According to Baseballprospectus.com and Cot’s Baseball Contracts, Baltimore’s Well-wishers in Canton lined the streets with encouraging signs during the Baltimore Opening Day payroll in 2015 was $118 Marathon on Saturday, October 17, 2015. | Photo by Julie M. Kichline million. That figure was the 14th highest in all of MLB and was the fourth highest in the AL East. If we take a look at their free agents, Chris Davis made $12 million in 2015, Matt Wieters made $8.3 million, Wei-Yin Chen made $11.388 million, Darren O’Day made $4.25 million, and Steve Pearce made $3.7 million. If you add all of those figures up, that is $39.638 million that could be coming off their books this season. Of those players, you have to think Davis, Wieters and Chen are heading out of town for more money, so now that would free up $31.688 million. What can that buy? Well the O’s will need outfielders in 2016 so let’s start there. They had Gerardo Parra for a little bit this season and he is now a free agent. Parra made $6.237 million in 2015 and one would assume he is in for a bit of a raise to say $8.5 million a year, so now that leaves about $23 million free if they could sign him. Another corner outfielder would be nice, someone with power who can help soften the loss of Davis. There have been rumors about Alex Gordon from Kansas City, and also Denard Span from Washington. Span made $9 million last season while Gordon Read the October 21 issue of the Baltimore Guide to answer this question made $12.5 million in 2015. Gordon does to be eligible to win 2 tickets to the Field of Screams in Mountville, PA. have a player option for $12.5 million in 2016, but he might opt out. The down side The Baltimore City Council is poised to vote on to those players is they will be 32 by the how many zoning code amendments? start of the 2016 season. The benefit to Gordon is his ability to get on base as Email answer to jkichline@baltimoreguide by 4 pm on Thursday, October 22. evidenced by his career on base percentage One entry per person. of .348, while Span’s main benefit is his speed, but at 32 years old, that speed will 526 S. Conkling Street • Highlandtown 410.732.6600 / www.baltimoreguide.com begin to fade.

So who else is out there? Jason Heyward, Yoenis Cespedes, and Dexter Fowler will be free agents also. Heyward is a quality defender and he is only 26 years old. Heyward made $7.8 million in 2015 and you can figure he would make somewhere around $9 million in 2016. Heyward reminds me very much of Nick Markakis in that early on in their careers they showed some power but never really progressed. They both also are great fielders. Dexter Fowler is a potential option as well. The current Chicago Cub will turn 30 before next year and set a career high in home runs in 2015 with 17, but his previous high was 13 and he also set a career high in games played with 156 in 2015. Fowler’s previous season high for games played was 143 in 2012. Fowler does have a knack for getting on base with a career on base percentage of .363 but he did make $9.5 million in 2015, so he might be earning more in 2016. I’m not sure I’d give him any more money than that. Finally, Yoenis Cespedes. With his second half in New York, I would assume he priced himself out of Baltimore. Cespedes just turned 30 and over his four seasons in the Majors, he has hit 106 home runs, 35 of them coming this year, even more specifically, 17 of them coming in his final 57 games with the Mets. Cespedes isn’t a huge on-base guy, posting a career OBP of .319 but he is a .271 career hitter. The power-hitting outfielder earned $10.5 million in 2015 and I can only imagine what that number will be for 2016. Of all those options, I would prefer to go after Parra and Heyward, but my first choice would be to keep Davis and maybe use him in right field and then go after another first baseman. Either way, no matter what I write or think, Peter Angelos will not spend the money to get the quality players the Orioles need to compete in the competitive AL East.

CLEAN CITY GUIDE: storm drain screens Wotring said that the committee will update the guide on a yearly basis to account for changes to the system, such as when the citywide municipal trash can program begins. The committee is currently working on a way to distribute this guide to neighbors. If you’re interested in getting copies to spread around, you are encouraged to contact the Patterson Park Neighborhood Association. To access electronic versions of the guide, visit www.pattersonparkneighbors.org/ introducing-the-patterson-park-clean-cityguide. Wotring also spoke about a quarter million grant that the organization received last year for environmental improvements to Patterson Park. Last year, the money was used to plant trees across the neighborhood. “This year the focus was on small projects like you might see planters throughout the neighborhood and various types of stormwater drains,” said Wotring. Following the announcement of the Clean City Guide, Mark Cameron, the Watershed Liasion for the Department of Public Works spoke. First, he said that the DPW was so impressed with the Clean City Guide, that they are going to use it as a model for other neighborhoods’ guides. He went on to describe an effort to reduce the trash that trickles into storm drains during heavy rains. The project involves installing screens on storm drains to prevent litter from going into the sewers and pipes. “This is one of the ways we need to be reducing and ultimately eliminating the trash and litter that’s in our streets,” said Cameron. He said the trash goes into and pollutes the Harbor and other waterways or blocks the pipe system. This stresses out the infrastructure, which is over a 100 years old and in an already fragile shape. The screens will be put on approximately 80 storm drains in Patterson Park. Some drains were not eligible for the screens because they were the not correct size. Along with this, there will be basins inside the drains that catch the trash that manages to pass through the screen. This technology was developed in California and has shown to be successful in reducing the amount of garbage that enters waterways. The installation will begin in March of 2016, however, Cameron said that DPW is working to speed up the process. Cameron
stressed that the installation will not impact traffic. The drains will undergo routine maintenance by contacted cleaners to prevent them from getting clogged. The basins will need to be vacuumed and the area around the drains will need to be swept and cleared. Cameron said it’s important that residents keep an eye on the drains and report any problems to DPW. McElderry Park will also get storm drain screens. If the project is successful, the DPW will extend it to other neighborhoods. Cameron then brought up an Adopt-AStorm-Drain project that DPW is attempting to get off the ground. The program would give community members Storm Water Credits on their water bill if they help maintain their block’s storm drain. “You just need to be the eyes and ears of the streets,” said Cameron. He said it’s crucial for residents to call 311 when they see a clogged inlet, calling it a “proactive solution”. For more information on the Adopt-AStorm Drain program, e-mail Cameron at Mark.Cameron@baltimorecity.gov.
