Check out the prayer garden at the Basilica. It is locked about 100% of the time to keep the homeless people out. Pretty sure that’s how this will end up.

It will also decimate this block, with buildings being retained on either end and the middle buildings gone. It is a contiguous block of houses so not sure the block will make sense without the entire row.

Plus, the majority of the people who are members of this congregation come in from the county and don’t care what happens in the city.

Also, there is a reason that this this row is still standing and it’s because the design of this row exists nowhere else in the city and it’s architecturally significant

Look at the Baltimore Architecture Foundation’s website’s Dead Architects section. Lots of dead architects and the buildings they designed. Also for some great early 1900s houses in RolandPark, Guilford & Homeland, check out www.palmerandlamdin.com

I think that people's problem with Aldi is that they went into food deserts where there were no grocery stores, and got the reputation of being a low-income grocery store. I shopped there all of the time when I lived in the UK, so was familiar with what a good store it was when they arrived here. Same for Lidl.
