You drive through alleys all the way to Owings Mills?

I bike a lot for a living each day and have seen the trail on light st next to the Maryland Science Center blocked with scooters.

They also are frequently parked in the sidewalk where they don't belong as well.

Bottom line is they don't belong parked on a trail a side walk or anywhere except what's already been designated as a parking spot plain and simple.

Cars are indeed a real issue as well I certainly agree with you on that one for sure

Basically we have people with vehicles that are completely inconsiderate of others and they NEED to be dealt with appropriately so this issue is rectified.

Hampden is a good choice. Safe. Things to do. Easy/close walk. I would look into apartments there!

Luke 14:28.

$65 per week while permitted, after that call 311.

The parishioner evidently had deep pockets then. Otherwise how do you explain having five houses? This then raises the question of what condition the houses were when they were acquired by the church?

If they were livable at the time, then why wasn't that pursued at a time when it would have been much easier to keep them afloat rather than they sit for decades and fall apart?

30 years is a really really long time to sit on properties and to be very frank, that shouldn't be allowed in the first place.

I'm assuming that Mt Vernon wasn't a slum 30 years ago so I have a hard time making sense of such valuable real estate just sitting there without any real buyers.

Good points. Maybe.

Not a good look for rideshare companies who pride themselves on saying their system is full proof and safe. Beyond an app on someone's phone, getting into a stranger's car requires A LOT of trust on a societal scale that isn't set up for such. Kinda crazy we've talked ourselves into thinking this is okay instead of just investing public transportation like we've been doing for almost 100 years prior.

Hogan's dislike of Baltimore is well-known but I'm honestly curious as to whether or not it would truly improve life and transit in a city that's been constantly losing residents for decades.

He might have canceled the Red Line in bad faith but without a grander transit system besides the weird patchwork of Metro, light rail and MARC, I'm not sure how it would have made enough of an impact to justify the cost alone. Even public infrastructure projects are supposed to have a return on investment.

This is scary. I have been leery of rideshare since having a bad experience with Uber in Denver. Nothing close to this, obviously, but…

Unless you really do look at the driver’s picture vs the app’s picture, you don’t know who you are getting in to a car with.

Never had a problem with it. There are enough back streets and alleys, that there’s always a legal way to get where I’m going.

Idle hours, yes. For some reason I see the sign like every day and still call it the wrong thing 🤦🏼‍♀️

I believe so, unless they stole that too? Maybe the person driving the Uber is that reckless and did use a car they registered - I wouldn't be shocked

Comparing Hogan to Trump is really unfair. Baltimore County and City are more corrupt then than the State Govt.

Oh yeah. House of Reps 1982-1994. Baltimore County Council 1994-2010. Guy reeks of career politics. Probably has multiple pensions and who knows how many backroom deals. I hope he gave the cops the “don’t you know who I am?” Treatment

Wouldn't you need the person's phone?

That’s a very helpful answer. Thank you!

I’ll be at the homewood campus. I’m paying like $1500 now in Denver, so I guess around that. Preferably cheaper. All I care about is some natural lighting, a washer-dryer in unit, and a dishwasher. Idk if it’s possible, but I would love to be able to walk to campus. Or if that’s not possible, maybe an area with some arts and decent food.

Welp, guess I won’t be using rideshare in Baltimore.

Monorail, monorail, monorail...

I didn’t even know that. I’ll be at homewood

Medical School? Neighborhoods south of the campus (particularly south of Baltimore street) are safest. For Homewood campus, you have plenty of options with Charles Village being the most urban and dense and Hampden having more of a small neighborhood feel.

Idle hours is fantastic, I've heard some good things about Mother's but I haven't checked it out, Pub Dog on Cross is nice because it's very much not a nightclub bar, but more of a pub.

Riverside is also worth checking out.

piece is missing a key note: Hogan also cancelled the Red line. A REAL project that would have significantly helped Baltimore.

Why did Hogan cancel it: because saying "fuck Baltimore" resonates with his voting base.

What’s your favorite bar? I walk by Idle Time a lot and that seems really chill.
