The influential landscape architecture firm was established in 1898 by brothers John Charles Olmsted and Frederick Law Olmsted Jr.\, sons of the eminent landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted. The Municipal Art Society hired them to produce the City’s first comprehensive park system plan in 1904\, the Development of Public Grounds for Greater Baltimore Report. The Wyman family had donated land for Johns Hopkins University in 1902 for use as a northern campus and that same year\, the University gave the remainder of the land to the City of Baltimore to serve as a public park. \nIn the 1904 Report\, the Olmsted Brothers identified Wyman Park\, with its old beech trees and bold topography\, as one of the finest single passages of scenery to be so near a large city and advocated for it to become a stream valley reserve and extended north and south Bookending the University to the southeast and fitting into the City grid is the intact Wyman Park Dell\, a 16-acre public park noted for its steep enclosing slopes and a large\, sweeping lower lawn\, fully realized and conceived by the Olmsted Brothers. The presentation will focus on their vision and what remains today from Stony Run’s headwaters at the city’s northern border to where the stream joins the Jones Falls River to the south. \nIn addition to the Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage\, Inc.\, this Virtual History is co-sponsored by the Friends of Maryland’s Olmsted Parks & Landscapes (FMOPL) and the Maryland Society of Landscape Architects. \nPresenters’ Bios: \nSince 1986\, Sandy Sparks\, founding president of the FMOPL\, is strongly committed to the non-profit organization’s involvement in streetscape\, park system and watershed planning\, in addition to its significant archive of Olmsted drawings.

SUMMARY:Lake Clifton High: The Story of Baltimore's Most Ambitious Modernist School
DESCRIPTION:Lake Clifton was Baltimore’s crown jewel of a massive school building effort. What happened?\n\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com. If you do not contact us at least 1 hour prior to the start of the program\, we cannot guarantee admittance. \nVirtual Histories are back in 2021!

We encourage you to give what you can to support BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nThis presentation will outline the history of Baltimore’s Lake Clifton High School. Completed in 1971 as the crown jewel of a massive school-building effort\, the sprawling and state-of-the-art campus was expected to stimulate racial integration and ease school overcrowding. However\, white students immediately rejected the school and the campus’ huge capacity was never filled. Lake Clifton developed a poor reputation around the city\, and recently closed for good after years of restructuring and physical dilapidation. The campus is likely to soon be acquired and demolished by Morgan State University; thus\, now is an ideal time to examine and commemorate Lake Clifton’s role in a tumultuous period of Baltimore’s history. \nJulian Frost\, grew up in Baltimore and graduated from Baltimore City College in 2019 and is currently a sophomore at Haverford College. He is majoring in the Growth and Structure of Cities program at Haverford’s sister school\, Bryn Mawr. Over the past year Julian has developed a great interest in the history of Baltimore’s built environment\, and is currently thinking about how to direct this interest into productive\, creative\, and potentially professional avenues. Julian started an Instagram page (@baltimorebuilthistory) as a repository for his casual research and findings.

SUMMARY:The Baltimore Greenway Trails Network: Connecting Baltimore's Trails
DESCRIPTION:The Baltimore Greenway Trails Coalition seeks to create a 35-mile world-class network of urban trails that links Baltimore together\n\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com.

We encourage you to give what you can to support BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nThe Baltimore Greenway Trails Coalition seeks to create a 35-mile world-class network of urban trails that link together the diverse neighborhoods\, cultural amenities and outdoor resources that make up the landscape of Baltimore City. The Coalition seeks to fill in the 10 remaining miles to create a connected urban trail network serving all of Baltimore. Incredible opportunities exist to complete this network by repurposing unused railroad corridors\, outdated road networks\, industrial brownfields\, and inaccessible waterfronts into multi-use shared paths which will connect every corner of the city. Participants in this discussion will learn how a coalition of public\, private\, non-profit\, and neighborhood led groups are seeking to turn these barriers in the built environment into community connectors through the Baltimore Greenway Trail Network. \nJoin us to learn how we are building a coalition as diverse as Baltimore to advance this important project and learn how we have been able to engage with AIA’s Urban Design Committee to bring the power of design thinking to this critical project for Baltimore’s future. As a recent study by EY examined\, the potential economic and social benefits of implementing the Greenway will provide a significant economic impact to Baltimore in addition to providing equitable\, healthy\, low-stress access to open space and reliable transportation\, healthy living\, and recreation for people of all ages and abilities in every corner of the city. The neighborhoods within a half mile of the Greenway are composed of 58% African-American residents and have a home ownership rate of 48%\, which represents similar demographic diversity and home ownership rates to Baltimore. The completed trail will bring economic and social benefits to a wide cross section of Baltimore’s population. \nAbout the Presenters:  \nEthan Abbott \nEthan Abbott is the project manager for the Baltimore Greenway Trails Coalition at Rails-to-Trails Conservancy.

SUMMARY:Society’s Cage: an Interpretive Design Pavilion for the Black Lives Matter Movement
DESCRIPTION:Society’s Cage: an Interpretive Design Pavilion for the Black Lives Matter Movement\n\n\nSociety’s Cage is a timely interpretive installation on the National Mall in Washington\, DC on view from August 28-September 13. The project was conceived and designed by the architecture firm SmithGroup in partnership with the Architects Foundation in the aftermath of the George Floyd and Breonna Taylor murders as our society reckons with institutional racism and white supremacy. The public installation features a bold interpretive pavilion sculpted to symbolize the historic forces of racialized state violence. The experience educates visitors and functions as a sanctuary to reflect\, record and share personal thoughts. It is conceived in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement as a mechanism for building empathy and healing. \nThe initial installation coincided with the March on Washington in support of Black Lives\, held in Washington\, DC on August 28\, 2020\, and is located on the National Mall at 12th Street and Madison Drive NW. \nSociety’s Cage reminds visitors that the murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor are not anomalies\, but rather the latest examples in a 400+ year historic pattern of unmitigated\, unbound\, systemic anti-Blackness in the United States. The installation provides an opportunity to acknowledge and reckon with the severity of the racial biases inherent in the institutional structures of justice and creates a space for collective reflection\, contemplation\, sharing\, and healing. \nThe pavilion is a series of bars that are hung to form a cube with a cavernous void that symbolizes our imperfect society and justice system. The void is shaped by historical data and serves as a visual metaphor to represent the primary institutional forces of racism that embody the Black American experience. \nFinancial donations to this Virtual History program will support this project\, and the possibility of bringing it to Baltimore. Additional donations will benefit the Architects Foundation’s Diversity Advancement scholarships. \nPresenters \nDayton Schroeter\, AIA\, Julian Arrington\,  and Chris Wood\, SmithGroup \nDayton Schroeter\, AIA\nDayton is a Design Principal who has championed Design Justice advocacy throughout his career at SmithGroup. As a leader of the firm’s Justice\, Equity\, Diversity and Inclusion Committee\, his charge is to lead design projects that address the systemic injustice that architecture and planning have perpetuated for historically disenfranchised communities of color. Leveraging his tenacious passion for design justice with authenticity and creativity\, he is currently leading Antiracism efforts in design projects including an installation called Society’s Cage that sheds national awareness of the intersectional effects of racism on our society’s collective health\, safety and welfare. \nJulian Arrington\, Associate AIA\nJulian Arrington is a lead designer in SmithGroup’s DC Cultural Studio. A proud graduate of Howard University\, Julian has shaped concepts for multiple museum projects including a museum to address the history of slavery in Richmond\, Virginia\, the Universal Hip Hop Museum\, the Museum of Pop Culture and others. A proponent of community-informed design\, Julian has helped to lead stakeholder-engagement efforts to craft designs that reflect the goals and aspirations of the people they serve. \nChris Wood\, AIA LEED AP BD+C\nChris Wood has led all phases of museum and collections center work\, from visioning and programming through construction. As director of the Cultural Studio at SmithGroup’s Washington\, DC office\, Chris has helped to sustain and build a team of interdisciplinary designers focused solely on Cultural work – something rarely found in the architectural field. He believes that focus is necessary to tackle the unique challenges inherent in these projects – successfully integrating the institutional mission\, collections care\, and the visitor experience. \nMore info: \nhttps://www.smithgroup.com/societys-cage  \nArchitectural Record article: \nhttps://www.architecturalrecord.com/articles/14777-designers-quantify-racial-injustice-in-data-driven-installation-on-national-mall?oly_enc_id=7210G7507989A9B \nDonations: \nhttps://architectsfoundation.networkforgood.com/projects/106171-society-s-cage-pavilion-project \nPromotional Partners

SUMMARY:How Suffragists Built Baltimore’s First Recreation Center (Jackson Gilman-Forlini)

Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nThe women’s suffrage movement. Cast-in-place concrete. Katherine Hepburn. What do these three things have in common? The Roosevelt Park Recreation Center\, of course! In this installment of Virtual Histories\, BAF board member Jackson Gilman-Forlini will present his ongoing research into the origins and architecture of Baltimore’s first rec center. \nCompleted in 1911\, the Roosevelt Park Recreation Center was the culmination of a years-long campaign by a tenacious group of Progressive Era reformers who\, despite skeptics\, believed they could improve the lives of working-class people through recreation. This initiative was led by Edith Houghton Hooker\, one of the most influential of Maryland suffragists and later the maternal aunt of actor Katherine Hepburn. The unlikely story behind the center’s creation is matched only by its architecture: an unusually modern design for Baltimore at the time and a wholly forgotten work by local architect J.B. Noel Wyatt. \nDespite modifications over the years\, the building retains a high degree of historical integrity and state of preservation. As a testament to the vision of its founders\, the center has remained an important community focal point for the Hampden neighborhood throughout its century-long history and served as a model for recreation centers throughout the city. \nAbout the Presenter \nJackson Gilman-Forlini is the Historic Preservation Officer for the Baltimore City Department of General Services\, where he manages the preservation of city-owned historic landmarks. He holds a B.A. and M.A. in Historic Preservation from Goucher College\, where his thesis dealt with the adaptive reuse of monuments and memorials. He is frequently quoted in The Baltimore Sun and has written for Maryland Historical Magazine and the architecture blog McMansion Hell.

SUMMARY:Roadblocks: The Effects of Highways In and Around Druid Hill Park
DESCRIPTION:Learn about the cultural and environmental impacts of cars in and around Druid Hill Park.\n\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom and Facebook Live. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com. If you do not contact us at least 1 hour prior to the start of the program\, we cannot guarantee admittance. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present a series of 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. \nTickets are donation based. We encourage you to give what you can to support the BAF\, Baltimore Heritage and Clean Water Action. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nJoin public artist Graham Coreil-Allen and environmental activist Jennifer Kunze as they explore the cultural and environmental impacts of cars in and around Druid Hill Park. Beginning in the 1940s\, car-oriented planning deprived neighboring residents of the public health\, cultural\, and economic benefits of Druid Hill Park. Construction of the Druid Hill Expressway and the Jones Falls Expressway resulted in dangerous five-to-nine-lane-wide highways encapsulating the park\, and blocking access by nearby residents. Further\, this influx of cars brought increased air pollution into the neighborhoods. \nGraham will shed light on The Access Project for Druid Hill Park (TAP Druid Hill)\, his initiative to bring together diverse neighborhood groups to shape the future of transportation around and access to Druid Hill Park. Jennifer will join the conversation from another angle to discuss the environmental and public health impacts of car travel in the city. The transportation sector is responsible for about 1/3 of asthma-causing air pollution\, more than any smokestack\, and Baltimore’s car-centric planning has harmed our air and water. \nAbout the Speakers\n \nGraham Coreil-Allen is a Baltimore-based public artist making places more inclusive and livable through public art\, placemaking\, and civic engagement. Coreil-Allen collaborates with neighbors to interpret and activate public spaces through public art for pedestrian safety and play\, interactive mapping\, radical walking tours\, and neighborhood advocacy. Whether creating artistic crosswalks\, memorable wayfinding\, interactive sculptures\, or light art installations\, Coreil-Allen caringly infuses public space with play and accessibility. \nJennifer Kunze is the Maryland Program Organizer at Clean Water Action\, where she works to support local campaigns in communities across Maryland. In Baltimore\, her work has focused on banning crude oil train terminals\, understanding the risk of lead in our drinking water supply\, supporting offshore wind development\, advocating for better assistance and prevention for people dealing with sewage backups in their homes\, and more.

SUMMARY:Baltimore's Treasures (Meg Fairfax Fielding)
DESCRIPTION:The fourth in a series of virtual tours and presentations with Baltimore Heritage and the Baltimore Architecture Foundation.\nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present a series of 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Next up is Meg Fairfax Fielding who will be taken us on a tour of Baltimore’s hidden architectural treasures. \nTickets are donation based. We encourage you to give what you can to support the BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this.\nBaltimore is a city filled with a wide range of architectural treasures. From tiny temple-like structures\, to gem-like carpenter gothic churches\, to robust Richardson Revival edifices\, to castle-like school buildings\, our architecture has something to delight everyone. But some of these treasures are off the beaten path and not everyone knows about them. \nTake a spin through Baltimore with BAF past president\, Meg Fairfax Fielding. Although she is not an architect by training\, she’s “architect adjacent.” She is doing a deep dive on Palmer & Lamdin properties in and around Baltimore\, as well as searching out 18th century brick churches along the Chesapeake Bay. Meg loves to explore Baltimore and the surrounding areas. By day\, she is the head of the History of Maryland Medicine at MedChi\, which was founded in 1799\, but on weekends\, you might find her on a lonely road on the Eastern Shore searching for a small\, ancient church. Follow her on Instagram at PigtownDesign. \nAbout the Baltimore Architecture Foundation\nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) celebrates design and the built environment.
