Welcome Erica Christoph!
Pigtown has a new Main Streets Manager: Erica Christoph! She hails from Georgia and comes with lots of energy! There will be an open house for her July 31st, 4:30-7:30 pm at 784 Washington Blvd.
Welcome to Pigtown Erica!
You don’t blog for a couple of weeks and then…
…you find out one of your neighbors was mugged. Damnit.
From Carol:
This morning, a neighbor who lives on McHenry (between Otterbein and Scott) was mugged. The mugger was described as a black male, 50-55 years old, 5′8″ or 9″ tall, dark skin and short hair. He was also walking with a fake limp and used a cane…which he then used to hit the victim before snatching her purse. This happened at approximately 9 AM.
Typically this doesn’t happen in our neighborhood, but we’ll have to be on high alert now. Be careful walking the streets!
Fourth of July in the City
It’s hot. It’s humid. it’s time for beer, BBQ, and fireworks.
I’m going down south to see family but I’m going to miss the fireworks in the City. And I’m not talking about the ones by the water, I mean the ones on the rooftops.
If you are still in the city, get onto your roof this 4th and check out the illegal fireworks extravaganza that the residents of our fine city set off. And though Baltimore’s finest will be out in full force to fine those who have the fireworks, I doubt they’ll be fining those who will be enjoying them.
Be safe this weekend and have some Natty Boh!
