Search pigtown in the sub search.

The city isn’t shirking. It’s a mass exodus of former low income residents. The city has done nothing but rise in median income over the last 10 years. Number of households have increased, but the number of families has decreased.

Because you your original point was grocery stores don’t want to come here. They’re here and they do open up as evident by them several very recent grocery store openings in various parts of the city.

Yes, no shit. Why would any business open up where it isn’t profitable. Location matters with everything.

Cherry Hill has options. I know because my grandmother lives there. I take her to the grocery stores nearest. They also have access to fresh produce and such at the Cherry Hill Shopping Center. And there are options for people in Sandtown as well.

You’re now moving into moving goalpost territory. We weren’t talking about food deserts. You went on some BS rant and I called you out on the plot holes in your narrative. You then tried moving goalposts and gaslighting. So that where the confusion came from. Below I’ve copied and pasted your direct quote to help with your confusion:

“For too long, Baltimore City (and Maryland state) government(s) have had no urgency for economic policy and infrastructure investment geared toward the city's overall population growth and stimulating business demand. As a result, there's a drag on the presence of amenities in this city; and in my opinion, this plays out most vividly in the food sector, both retail and restaurants. Grocery stores don't want to come here & restaurants open today, go out of business tomorrow, and have early closing hours in the interim. It's all pathetic given the city's beauty, potential, and youthful vibe---there could be a booming night time economy here.”

Northwood isn’t the El nor is Greektown. Not that that changes the fact the several different grocery store chains have opened here within 5 years where you said “none want to come to Baltimore”. Clearly that isn’t true.

Dude a Giant just opened up in Locust point last week.. Northwood Commons by Morgan got a Lidl…they opened the Streets Markets in Greektown and Charles Village a few years ago. Ironically both of the last 2 were developed by Bramble.

And cool, hip new restaurants open every other day. Do you even live in Baltimore? It’s a global “post Covid” adjustment. This issue is happening downtowns across the nation.

OMG YES. This is the one thing that really chaps my ass post-Covid.hard pressed to find brunch or lunch at most places that aren’t in fells that are open for lunch/brunch Sunday - Thursday. And then to some degree the other remaining days. And then those same places close at 10-12PM that night.

Absolutely not. I call it “Sniff & Bump” affectionally. The owner was caught in a huge blow bust 10 years ago. Dude got caught like 7 kilos in Northern Va. he also owns that Rita’s between eastern/fleet here and hey found more blow + various other party drugs + a shitload of money and if I’m not mistaken a gun or 4. There’s been serval bar owners between canton and fells that have been busted for blow thru the years.

So much so it’s now Wet City, ha

No, it was my fault. I definitely miss the going out scene in midtown 2010-2014 tho. I haven’t thought about Dionysus in years! Their wings were so good lol

Got blackout off resurrections and beazly’s, woken up fully clothed with shoes on more times then I care to admit having nightcaps there. Those were golden years

Oh I remember that whole ordeal and I’ve meet her several times, she’s VERY interesting she got those properties in a divorce if I recall.

I didn’t mean Brewers opened 15 years ago to clarify. Dionysus closed in 2011. And then club chuck was closed for several years between now and 2011. There weren’t as many mid ranges spots when Liam Flynn and Daughtery’s closed. But now there’s so many quality alternatives in adjacent neighborhoods

I was young when they were award that, I’m seasoned now haha

It’s ok to defend Brewers. It’s nice that there’s more options at various price points in the area now. Sadly. Lost some great late night spots for sure. Lost city dinner in particular. You should definitely check out Royal Blue tho, I’ve been a couples. The food and drinks are great and then at night it’s quality dance party under the disco ball

Well, for starters more places opened up in Mount Vernon. When Brewers Art first opened it was one of few reasonable causal places to drink and hang out. It was super cool, voted by Esquire mag as one of the best bars in the US. As well as food awards. But that was 15 years ago. There’s now there’s more places within a 5 block radius.

They now have weird hours and would rather close early post pandemic. They were closed for a long time too during the pandemic. Station North, Old Goucher and Remington have also stolen the night life crowd in central Baltimore, so it’s more of a pregame and dinner spot. I used to live at Brewers for late night happy hour in the dungeon when Beasley, Joe, Eric, etc were there great times.

Hard disagree. I’ve had zero problems getting food here even at 3am. Especially when I lived in MV with The Spot, Michelangelos pizza, University market, Jung kak and Ravens Pizza. Miss when Never on Sunday was open until 3 am.late night pizza and hot dogs in fells at the square and the various halal food trucks.

All Marko’s pizza and Ny Fried chicken spots are open late too .

It actually made perfect sense.

Companies move all the time. Especially to NYC. Pandora has been here since 2009. At least they fulfilled their lease agreement. Good for them for expanding when other companies are completely remote. I don’t see this as a “Baltimore is doomed” situation.

From the same source,

“Pandora will keep its nearly 90,000 square feet in Baltimore, expanding its North American office footprint with its Times Square deal.

Pandora plans to move into 1540 Broadway next year and keep its downtown Baltimore offices at 250 West Pratt Street until 2026, according to an announcement from Pandora.”

How about we read articles and process information before we go off on tangents.

BeOne, Kong, Jong kak, the Crown

Ya ok

Oh they certainly do I know from experience.

Perception isn’t always reality. I’d be curious to see the stats. Though, two things can be true. Multiple task.

That maybe so, but then that’s another illegal strike against you if caught that will further bite you in the ass in court/legal fees. Tthat’s more money said person is going to have to shell out to the city/state.

Baltimore city boots after 3 unpaid tickets, and MD MVA won’t let you renew your license or registration, tags or anything. Trust and believe Baltimore city and the state of MD is going to get that money if they have to garnish your wages to do it.

Alcohol + race chats + a bar in Baltimore … what could go wrong? It’s a trap.
