If you are physically able to do manual labor, try landscaping companies. Not sure about the city, but there are some based in the immediate suburbs. This is the busy season so many will likely be hiring.

I'll put in another report. Crazy I have to do 5 reports AND call it out on Reddit.

All pay grades. If you have no experience you might be a good fit for the top job in DPW. They wing it in Baltimore so we get explosions. Everyone loves a good explosion.

Thankfully, no one was hurt.
We added concrete barriers to the work zone to protect the site, and to keep drivers and our workers safe.
When you see CONSTRUCTION, for everyone's sake, please SLOW DOWN.

I second the Uber! It is a mile and half from the Hyatt to Max's Taphouse. It doesn't sound like a lot but it is a bit of hike. I only say this because I have parked at Gay street for Camden Yards and walked. That is only a mile but it took forever. At least take an Uber back to the hotel if you walk there.

I have two patients who were in an accident at that pothole. It’s a very deep, very dangerous hole, I’d call it a sinkhole. Their car isn’t driveable, they have months of pt ahead of them.
I hope you can get this fixed, the area around Caton Avenue, Patapsco Avenue, Wilkens Avenue and Benson Avenue is deteriorating fast because of all the heavy trucks driving through. I won’t drive down that way. I heard at a neighborhood meeting we won’t get any help, support for having the road resurfaced because that would require the road to be closed for hours or maybe more, the truck companies now take priority because they donated to Ms. Porter the new councilwoman and her friend who runs the Village of Violetville.
I remember when Benson Avenue was resurfaced last time, I still worked in the medical office building there. We had a little grand opening festival, they kept the road closed for a day after it was completed so children could ride their bikes and skateboards. I can see how truck companies would be upset at the road closed for a day or two, we need safe roads more than we need whatever jobs the truck companies may have. I don’t know anyone who works for those companies, I know many people who were injured or had car damage from the bad roads.

It falls under the "this is why we can't have nice things" corollary of human behavior.
If you've never worked in a public setting (esp food service) you might have never been the person who had to go clean the bathroom. And sometimes you get asked to go clean that bathroom after an inexplicable incident and you find yourself staring into the abyss, wondering how there can be both so much feces and how it got to all those places.
Everyone assumes it's because establishments are being 'anti-homeless' or some other exclusionary behavior. No. It's because some person or persons ruined it for everyone else. They could have just gone in, used the bathroom like you would expect any normal human to use it, but instead they decided that at that moment, HR Giger was their muse, and poop was their medium.
So if you're never opened the restroom door, and realized that you would have to start cleaning by the light switch, I can understand why you might not be familiar with why they lock the bathrooms in some places. And even worse is that it doesn't happen just the once, it happens multiple times before management finally listens to the employee complaints and installs the lock.

You bet! Send us a report using the 311 app. Our crews are already out fixing potholes with the warmer weather, and we can put that on our list.

Any chance you'll repair the potholes at Caton & Joh? One of my crew trucks took a hit there. Busted the axle. I talked to a friend in DOT. A crew cold patched it last year. You still got open requests for it. It's a 1'x4' hole. You & I know that's not the right way. You gotta clean the hole and use hot mix. Bottom line you need to resurface the road.

Hahaha I got downvoted too for suggesting not walking around at night.
Inner harbor is a dump though you’re right. Anyone that visits and limits themselves to the inner harbor is really missing out on the charm and safety this city has to offer.

I am very sad about firefly, their wines and beers were legit. Loved going there to get some work done with someone while drinking a bottle of good wine.

I wasn't here. I saw pics. It's cool they did that.

I heard the same. That's why they cold patched it. It takes less than a hour.
