SUMMARY:Johnston Square Tour with ReBUILD Metro
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a walking tour of Johnston Square with ReBUILD Metro. Tickets available now. \nJohnston Square is a neighborhood in central Baltimore\, located east of the Fallsway and west of the Oliver neighborhood\, bordered by Greenmount Cemetery at the north and Eager Street at the south. Join us for a tour to learn more about ReBUILD Metro and the work that they are doing to transform this neighborhood. \nOver the last two decades\, ReBUILD Metro has strategically invested over $125 million in East Baltimore\, remediating over 500 vacant properties and lots into new homes and assets and reducing vacancy by over 90% in its first two reinvestment areas of Oliver/Broadway East and Greenmount West. In 2015\, it expanded to Johnston Square\, where it is now working with public\, private\, and community partners on a $200 million plan to transform the area into a thriving and income-diverse neighborhood that provides opportunities and changes the lives of new and legacy residents alike—and that can serve as a blueprint for Baltimore’s regeneration. \nThis walking tour will focus on ReBUILD Metro’s neighborhood developments which include three blocks of completed rehabbed single-family homes\, a multi-family building currently under construction\, a library\, and multi-block park to start construction in August. This tour is outdoors and will take place rain or shine.

SUMMARY:The Peale Museum tour
DESCRIPTION:The Baltimore Architecture Foundation is happy to present a Doors Open evening tour of The Peale. Register here to join us Tuesday\, August 27 at 5:30pm. \nPlease join us at The Peale\, Baltimore’s Community Museum\, for a tour of the first museum that was purposefully built in the Americas. Our building housed many firsts that will be illuminated during the tour – including being the first commercial building to be illuminated by natural gaslight\, a material Rembrandt Peale manufactured in the museum’s back garden.  In 1813\, Rembrandt Peale\, a member of the first family of American artists and museum pioneers\, hired Baltimore architect Robert Cary Long to design a museum. Long produced what was essentially a large Federal Period townhouse with a spacious rear gallery extension.  Peale’s “Museum and Gallery of the Fine Arts” opened in August 1814 and hosted exhibitions that would be considered in today’s world as both those belonging in a fine art or natural history museum.  Scientific discovery played an important role in the early Peale Museum – contributing greatly to the new nation’s understanding of science\, technology and natural history. \nLike many museums of today\, Rembrandt had difficulty paying the hefty expenses of operating a museum; and in April 1830\, the museum property was sold at public auction.  Over the next 150+ years\, the building served many different purposes\, finally returning to its original intent as a museum. After a period of vacancy and a multi-year renovation\, it reopened as The Peale\, Baltimore’s Community Museum in 2022.

SUMMARY:Hippodrome Theatre Tour
DESCRIPTION:Register here to join the Baltimore Architecture Foundation on a Doors Open afternoon tour of the Hippodrome Theatre. \nThe legendary Hippodrome Theatre was designed by noted theatre architect Thomas Lamb and opened on November 23\, 1914 as a movie palace that also showcased vaudeville performances. The theatre seated 3\,000 and in 1920 the average weekly attendance was 30\,000. Sound for the movies was provided by piano\, a Moller organ commissioned for the theatre\, and an orchestra. In the 1930’s\, the Hippodrome gained a reputation as a top vaudeville house\, presenting such notables as Bob Hope\, Jack Benny\, Red Skelton\, Benny Goodman and his orchestra\, Dinah Shore\, Martha Raye\, Milton Berle\, the Andrews Sisters and Morey Amsterdam. It was in The Hippodrome Theatre that Frank Sinatra first appeared with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra and in 1939 with Harry James’ band. \nBusiness remained strong from the 30’s through the 1950’s with the last stage shows presented around 1959. Business dropped off during the 70’s and 80’s\, and the Hippodrome closed in 1990\, when it was the last operating movie theatre in downtown Baltimore. \nNow the curtain rises again at The France-Merrick Performing Arts Center at the Hippodrome. This is the culmination of a construction and restoration project that transforms and combines three significant historic buildings and one newly constructed building into a state-of-the-art showcase. These landmarks are the Western National Bank built in 1887\, the Eutaw Savings Bank built in 1888\, the Hippodrome Theatre\, and a new building at the corner of Baltimore and Eutaw Streets. Programming at this world-class venue will include touring Broadway shows and the best of the performing arts. \nPlease note that this tour does involve walking\, periods of standing\, and climbing stairs.

SUMMARY:Lovely Lane Tour
DESCRIPTION:Register here to join the Baltimore Architecture Foundation for a midday tour of Lovely Lane United Methodist Church. \nNearly a hundred years after the founding of American Methodism\, In 1883\, the church’s pastor\, Dr. John F. Goucher\, hired Stanford White\, the famous Victorian architect\, to build a new church as a centennial monument. The present building\, Lovely Lane United Methodist Church\, at 22nd and St Paul Streets was completed and dedicated in November 1887. After experiencing hard times in the 1960s and 1970s as much of its congregation moved away from the area\, the congregation began restoration work in earnest in 1984 on the 200th anniversary of the founding of Methodism here in Baltimore. The work included refurbishing the extraordinary domed ceiling that depicts the morning sky with the stars and planets as they were at 3a.m.\, November 6th\, 1887\, when the church was dedicated. \nLovely Lane’s Centennial Monument building has been a tourist and pilgrimage destination for more than a hundred years. In addition to the historic sanctuary and chapel\, it is home to the Lovely Lane Museum and research library. \nThis hour-long lunchtime tour will cover the main architectural rooms of the church\, including the sanctuary\, fellowship hall\, chapel\, and the Goucher room. The tour guides have extensive knowledge of the history of the architecture\, as well as the general American Methodist History that created this building.

SUMMARY:Cross Keys Redevelopment Tour
DESCRIPTION:Since James Rouse opened it in 1965\, The Village of Cross Keys has remained a premier gathering place with boutique shops\, eateries\, and a variety of local businesses. Register here to join the Baltimore Architecture Foundation for a tour of the newly revitalized areas of this historic “see and be seen” meeting spot for people around Baltimore. \nCross Keys was originally developed in 1965 by Jim Rouse\, the visionary founder of The Rouse Company. It’s a destination that evokes nostalgia and childhood memories—many know it as the place their mothers used to shop. Since the beginning\, Cross Keys has served as an escape from the bustle of Baltimore\, a tucked-away community off of I-83 that offers elevated shopping\, dining\, and family experiences for city and county residents alike. \nThe property was acquired by Baltimore-based Caves Valley Partners in July 2020.  Since then\, Cross Keys has undergone major renovations to modernize its appearance and functionality and it is actively undergoing a comprehensive redevelopment\, which will include the addition of over 300 apartments and new retail and office buildings. \nJoin us to view the refreshed and revitalized Cross Keys\, learn about the new restaurant and retail businesses\, and hear more about future developments. Following the tour\, stay for a reception with food and drinks provided by our generous event sponsor.

SUMMARY:Maryland Club Tour
DESCRIPTION:The Maryland Club formed in 1857\, when workboats\, sailing ships\, and steamboats jammed Baltimore harbor. Political parties frequently met here to nominate candidates for President\, and citizens proudly referred to the place as “the monumental city.” After the Civil War\, as the club flourished\, and the city expanded northward\, the governors purchased a vacant lot on the southeast corner of Charles and Eager streets and made plans for a new club house. The lead architect\, Josias Pennington of the local firm Baldwin and Pennington\, had much experience designing B&O Railroad stations. His Romanesque building in the style of Henry Hobson Richardson made heavy use of Baltimore-County white marble and formally opened on New Year’s Day\, 1892. \nThe tour will offer a rare chance to see inside the historic Maryland Club. After a disastrous fire in 1995\, club leadership elected not simply to repair the Eager Street building but to restore it– refinishing floors and paneling\, repainting walls\, and rethinking the arrangement of prints\, paintings\, and trophies.  Just off the main foyer you will discover the former lounge area that was transformed into a casual restaurant and bar area\, thoughtfully designed by SM+P Architects with curated art selections from the club’s existing collections. In addition\, the tour will include the 2018 modern addition to the club that contain its world class squash and fitness facilities\, locker/shower rooms\, and pro shop. \nRegister here to join the tour.

SUMMARY:Eutaw Farm and the Creation of Northeast Baltimore - (Offering In-Person AND Virtual Experience)
DESCRIPTION:Archaeologists Jason Shellenhamer and Lisa Kraus will share the results of their six-years of field work and research in Herring Run Park\, which has uncovered the remains of one of Baltimore’s largely forgotten great estates\, Eutaw Farm. Like most of Baltimore’s homes of the rich (and sometimes famous)\, including the Carrolls of Homewood and the Garretts of Evergreen\, the history of Eutaw speaks to a wealthy white family’s rise and fall. But the archaeology of Eutaw Farm also reveals remarkable and astonishing stories about the development of Northeast Baltimore and the founding families of Baltimore\, those you may have heard of and those whose stories have never before been told. \nPLEASE NOTE: This HYPRID IN-PERSON + VIrtual EVENT is part of Doors Open Baltimore\, a citywide festival of architecture and neighborhoods sponsored by the Baltimore Architecture Foundation. If you have opted for a virtual ticket\, you will receive a Zoom link closer to the event. \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS \nLisa Kraus (Ph.D.\, University of Texas at Austin) and Jason Shellenhamer (M.A.A.\, University of Maryland) are professional archaeologists with a combined 40 years of experience in historical archaeology. They are also the co-directors of the Herring Run Archaeology Project\, a free\, community-based archaeology program in Baltimore City.

Some are modest\, simple structures\, some are grander\, and probably all of them have been ignored when we think about Baltimore’s architectural heritage. If we stop to look at them\, however\, we see the evidence of Baltimore’s spatial and population growth in the years before the Civil War. They tell a tale of geographic and social mobility\, changing tastes\, and even theological change. You can see all this\, if you know what you’re looking at. \nMichael S. Franch\, Ph.D.\, is a historian\, board member and past president of the Baltimore City Historical Society\, He is especially interested in Baltimore urban growth and religious community in the early 19th century. \nView all Doors Open Baltimore programs at www.doorsopenbaltimore.org \nREGISTER HERE
