SUMMARY:Baltimore + Rotterdam: Designing Cities Conversation Series
DESCRIPTION:This series is a sequel to the previous webinar series from spring 2022. The spring 2023 theme is: Infrastructure as a Barrier. The 2023 series intends to critically look at the theory gained through the 2022 series and provide practical input to current urban challenges. \nArchitects\, designers\, and researchers from Baltimore (Maryland\, USA) and Rotterdam (the Netherlands)\, discuss “How do architects design spaces for people?” together with the audience — in 4 round tables facilitated by international moderators. Each round table dynamically explores designs that value infrastructures\, cities\, public spaces\, communities\, and individuals. Each webinar will explore a specific theme. This is a unique opportunity to hear how different types of firms approach design in two cities with similar historical legacies (working class cities with port industries). \nThis series is designed and coordinated by Cristina Murphy\, Assistant Professor at Morgan State University School of Architecture + Planning (MSU SA+P) and Adjunct Professor at Virginia Tech School of Architecture + Design’s Washington-Alexandria Architecture Center. \nDates: Every Tuesday from February 14 to March 7\, 2023\, 12pm ET (US) / 18.00 CET (NL)\nFormat: Online webinar — moderated panel discussion and Q&A.\nAIA continuing education credits: 1.0 AIA LU|HSW per webinar.\nRegistration: Admission is free but donations to support student travel to Rotterdam are appreciated (donation page accessible via link above). \nFebruary 14 Urban Ecology: Approaches for Environmental + Social Justice \nUrbanization is domesticating our ecosystems. Cities are spatially heterogeneous\, complex adaptive systems. Furthermore\, contemporary cities tend to be big in size and ecological footprint\, fast in growth in population and land\, and irregular in landscape configuration. Although the dynamic trajectory of cities can never be controlled\, its evolution can be guided toward desirable directions through planning and design that are based on urban ecological knowledge and sustainability approaches. Register here. \nFebruary 21 Collective Reuse: The Art of Reuse through Community Participation \nAdaptive Reuse is the use of buildings and materials for purposes other than originally intended. Although adaptive reuse has a long tradition in arts and crafts\, more recently environmental awareness and design for sustainability have revitalized the role of a trash-to- treasures approach\, providing a wide array of contemporary urban design which is an important part of today’s city sustainability. In this session\, we will explore the roles of adaptive reuse in the urban environment\, focusing on repurposed objects (also) found in urban public spaces in order to (re)define the city. Register here.  \nFebruary 28 The Generous City: Infrastructure and the Highway to Nowhere \n \nCities and infrastructure can have an incredible impact on the lives of people. In the 1950s\, the United States undertook an ambitious national interstate highway project with the goal of building roads to connect American cities. The design was\, however\, intertwined with racial prejudice creating segregation and impoverishing communities. In the Netherlands\, cities like Rotterdam were rebuilt after the war and focused on cars as opposed to people. Urban highways have largely had a negative impact on urban life. This is the opposite of a “generous city”. In this session\, architects from the Netherlands and the US will discuss how cities and their infrastructures can consciously contribute to empower people through generosity-by-design. Register here. \nMarch 7 The Power of Design! Working with Stakeholders to Design Human Spaces \nIn order to improve the way we live\, we ought to design healthier and safer cities and smarter buildings. To do so\, collaboration is key. Our world faces challenges that are too great to be tackled by a single discipline. Baltimore and Rotterdam\, like many cities around the world\, face challenges related to food segregation\, water resiliency\, and poverty (also connected to homelessness)\, to name a few. More than ever\, inviting users\, customers\, governance\, and other stakeholders into the process of design is fundamental. These “new” stakeholders need to be brought in as active co-designers\, to confront the big issues and develop actionable ways to improve experiences and to co-create new solutions. How can we\, the designers\, guarantee the welfare of citizens\, through the creation of the built environment? Collaboration is discovering and using unique perspectives and benefiting from collective exploration. Register here.

It quickly became a popular place of burial for people across Black Baltimore’s socioeconomic spectrum\, including 230 Black Civil War veterans and notables such as Civil Rights activist Reverend Harvey Johnson. \nIn 1958 and after a series of lawsuits failed to prevail in the courts\, Laurel Cemetery was leveled. Today it is the site of the Belair-Edison Crossing Shopping Center\, and home to several businesses. However\, many current patrons and nearby residents have no knowledge of the site’s former purpose and significance. Join Dr. Isaac Shearn of the Laurel Cemetery Memorial Project to learn more about the important history of the site and how we can preserve its memory. \nAbout Our Presenter \nIsaac Shearn earned his PhD in 2014 at the University of Florida and is an adjunct professor at the Community College of Baltimore County\, University of Baltimore\, and Coppin State University. His research is on the archaeology and ethnohistory of the Caribbean and South America\, with a focus on public archaeology\, developing inclusive and participatory methods. His recent efforts have been oriented toward integrating three-dimensional photogrammetric mapping techniques with more traditional archaeological methods. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Hybrid Panelization (BEC Baltimore + AIA Baltimore)
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 10\, 2022\nVia webinar\n12:30-1:30pm (Eastern)\n1 AIA LU (HSW) will be provided \nOff-site panelized construction is a growing and efficient method of production in commercial construction. Typically\, panels are fabricated completely off-site and transported and installed on-site as a full wall system. However\, due to potential irregularities in building materials\, challenges with ensuring continuity of control functions between panels can arise\, specifically related to air and water control. The Philly Live! Hotel and Casino opted for a hybrid approach combining pre-fabrication of the wall panels including the CFMF substrate\, gypsum sheathing and air/water resistive membrane\, allowing for appropriate sealing between panels on site prior to installation of the exterior insulation and cladding. Please join BEC-Baltimore and EDA Contractors in a discussion on this hybrid approach. \nIn this session\, participants will learn to: \n\nDifferentiate the positives and negatives of typical ‘panelization’ versus hybrid ‘panelization’;\nRecognize the sequence coordination involved in constructing a complicated exterior panel rainscreen wall system;\nExamine virtual design tools and functionality needed to synchronize the installer and design team; and\nAppraise multiple virtual design tools in realistic scenarios in an actual case study during a pandemic.\n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:The Carbon Balance of the Built Environment
DESCRIPTION:Join the AIA Baltimore Committee on the Environment + Resiliency in examining the total carbon balance of the built environment \n1.0 LU/HSW Available\n \nCarbon in the built environment is a larger contributor to global emissions that affect the climate. All participants of the Paris Climate Agreement have to meet certain GHG reduction targets. Meeting these targets is a fundamental condition of the health and well being of humankind now and in the future. \nFor a long time building green meant to reduce the energy that a building needs to operate. With a focus on GHG emissions\, this concern has shifted from energy to carbon emissions\, for example by demanding that a building should be fully electrified even if it is very energy efficient. \nThe focus on carbon as the critical metric brought into focus all aspects of the built environment that are not operations. Looking at the total carbon balance of the built environment brings a lot of other aspects into view\, that have been previously less discussed\, including land use\, site design\, what happens after the lifecycle of the various elements that make up the built environment and “embodied carbon”. The latter term has recently become a hot topic in the sustainability discussion\, for example at this year’s Green Build Conference. \nThis discussion will look at the total carbon balance of the built environment by looking at all major phases and components of carbon emissions and the fact that the lines between embodied and operational carbon are not always easy to understand. Much what winds up as embodied carbon in infrastructure\, sites or buildings has gone through operational stages during production or transport or\, at a minimum embodies operational energy from those stages. \nThe presentation includes these keywords: Total Carbon Footprint of Buildings\, Life Cycle Assessment\, Embodied Carbon\, importance of embodied carbon vs operational carbon\, what industries produce the most carbon\, where in a building embodied carbon is most concentrated. It will also address the carbon footprint of land use and site design and the ability of land itself to be a carbon sink or a carbon emitter. \nParticipants will be able to: \n1. Recognize all stages in design\, construction\, operation and de-construction which contribute GHG emissions \n2. Distinguish between operational and embodied carbon \n3. Identify which early land use and site design decisions influence embodied and operational carbon \n4. Identify strategies to allow land to be a carbon sink instead of an emitter \n5. Find and use tools to estimate embodied carbon and make early decisions that avoid high embodied carbon content \nAbout the Presenter: \nKlaus Philipsen\, FAIA\, ArchPlan\, Inc. \nKlaus Philipsen\, FAIA\, is president of ArchPlan Inc.\, an architecture and urban design firm in Baltimore specializing in community revitalization\, adaptive re-use\, historic preservation and transportation planning since 1992. He has been named a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects for using his profession to affect communities through advocacy. \nAdditionally\, Philipsen is or has been engaged in the nonprofit sector such as a statewide growth management group which he helped found (1994-2016) an urban land trust for which he is president\, a non-profit design center in Baltimore which he co-founded\, as chair of the Urban Design Committee of both the local Chapter of the American Institute of Architects until 2017\, (AIA) and the national Regional and Urban Design Committee of AIA (RUDC); He was for 10 years a member of a Borough Council in Stuttgart. He currently chairs the Housing Subcommittee of the Social Determinants of Health Task Force at UMB. \nREGISTER HERE

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. Since 2015\, they have conducted excavations\, research\, and public outreach at the Eutaw Farm site in Herring Run Park and the Ship Caulkers’ Houses in Fells Point. \nREGISTER FOR A VIRTUAL TICKET \nREGISTER FOR A IN-PERSON TICKET

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

SUMMARY:The History and Development of East Towson (Doors Open Baltimore)
DESCRIPTION:Suggestion Donation: $10 \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. \nHistoric East Towson\, an African-American community unique to Baltimore County and the nation\, is a thriving\, tight-knit enclave adjacent to Towson’s urban core. Descendants of the original settlers – men\, women and children formerly enslaved at the nearby Hampton Plantation – still live in the neighborhood today. This presentation focuses on the political events that have had a major impact on Historic East Towson for generations. \nBios: \nCarol Allen\, creator of\, “East Towson: From Jim Crow to Black Lives Matter\,” served for over two decades as Executive Director of Historic Towson\, Inc. In that role she oversaw the addition of several buildings and districts to the National Register and Baltimore County Final Landmarks List. She is a Past Chair of the Baltimore County Landmarks Preservation Commission.

We’ll explore what makes this modernist church so beloved by Baltimoreans. \nThe Church of the Redeemer was built in 1958 and designed by architect Pietro Belluschi in collaboration with RTKL. It is a Mid-Century Modern\, re-interpretive addition to the original 1856 church by R. Snowden Andrews (1830-1903). Its sophisticated design integrates original stone and like materials to create a modern spirituality of the time. \nPeitro Belluschi (1899-1994) was born in Italy\, and moved to Portland\, Oregon in the 1920’s. His churches and residences reflected a Pacific Northwest vernacular of wood and stone\, while his seminal commercial work was more modern in its materials vocabulary. We will tour the 1856 historic chapel\, and the 1958 church and supporting administration wing and will view some of the original drawings and documentation of the Belluschi work. \nThis program will be presented by We’ll be joined by Mark Schroeder\, Director of Facilities at the Church of the Redeemer. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Designs on Victory: Olmsted-inspired Garden City Plans for Historic Dundalk
DESCRIPTION:Amy Menzer discusses the design and development of WWI Era Historic Dundalk\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. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present the Virtual Histories Series: 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Hosted every Friday at 1:00 pm EST. This special program is co-hosted by the Maryland Chapter of American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) and the Friends of Maryland’s Olmsted Parks & Landscapes (FMOPL) as part of Olmsted 200 celebration of the Bicentennial of Frederick Law Olmsted Sr’s birth. \nTickets are donation based. 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 Bethlehem Steel Mill at Sparrows Point launched an effort to create a Garden City-style town in 1917 just before the US entered WWI. At the same time\, the Federal Government began housing production for war workers. Frederick Law Olmsted\, Jr. (FLO Jr.) headed the Town Planning division of the new United States Housing Corporation. Several colleagues in the nascent profession of city planning who had worked with FLO Jr. on Roland Park and Forest Hills Gardens were all directly involved in designing Dundalk\, including Baltimore architect Edward Palmer\, Roland Park Company leader Edward Bouton\, and architects Grosvenor Atterbury and Charles Wellford Leavitt. Their plans were inspired by their designs for more affluent areas\, including curvilinear streets\, separation of uses\, green spaces\, and restrictive covenants. We will explore how these plans created a new community for workers and managers\, but was segregated by race. \nPresenters \nAmy E. Menzer is executive director of Dundalk Renaissance\, a 20 year-old non-profit community development organization\, and is deeply interested in planning history and neighborhood change. She also serves as a Board member of the Friends of Maryland’s Olmsted Parks and Landscapes. She previously worked for Citizens Planning and Housing Association on housing and transportation advocacy\, and has served as President of the Community Development Network of Maryland\, NeighborSpace Baltimore County\, the Patterson Park Neighborhood Association\, and the Transit Riders League of Metropolitan Baltimore. She holds a Ph.D in Human Geography from Johns Hopkins University. \nJoining this presentation is Meg Fairfax Fielding\, past president of BAF\, and member of BAF’s Dead Architects’ Society. By day\, Meg is the head of the History of Maryland Medicine at MedChi\, which was founded in 1799\, but on weekends\, loves to explore Baltimore and the surrounding areas and take deep dives into the historical contributing architects\, such as Palmer & Lamdin.

SUMMARY:The History and Award Winning Renovation of the Pratt Central Library
DESCRIPTION:Sandra Vicchio and Jillian Storms discuss the design of the Pratt Central Library\, one of Baltimore’s most beloved buildings.\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. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present the Virtual Histories Series: 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Hosted every Friday at 1:00 pm EST. This special program is hosted in partnership with the George Peabody Library. \nTickets are donation based. 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. \nAbout this Presentation: \nThe Pratt Central Library achieved second place in BAF’s Architecture Madness tournament of Baltimore’s best buildings built between 1870 and today and hosted in celebration of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary. In today’s Virtual History\, we’ll explore what makes this library so special and how it served as a national model for libraries that followed. \nIn 1882\, Enoch Pratt gave a whopping $1 million gift to Baltimore City to launch the nation’s first free library system\, proclaiming\, “My library shall be for all\, rich and poor without distinction of race or color…” This welcoming vision was echoed in the 1929 design of the system’s new central branch\, starting with its street-level main entrance on Cathedral Street\, going against the grain of architectural design for grand civic institutions at the time. Architect Clyde N. Friz hoped to give the library “a dignity characterized by friendliness rather than aloofness” avoiding the old-fashioned institutional character of past libraries. When Baltimore’s Central Library opened on Cathedral Street in 1933\, it displayed its featured content in large bay windows along its street facade enticing all to enter\, much like department stores on nearby Howard Street. \nToday\, the Central Library serves more than half a million people a year and recently received a $115 million\, three-year renovation. Its exterior and interiors were gorgeously restored and fully transformed for the digital age with up-to-date systems and technology masterfully integrated into the historic fabric. Dropped ceilings were removed to reveal fabulous stenciling\, decorative molding damaged in prior renovations was restored by artisans\, and historically appropriate new lighting was installed to make the rooms feel light and airy. The results are stunning. \nCome join us as we hear from our two presenters about this award-winning library\, inviting and comfortable for all who enter\, and one that will fill you with civic pride. Gordon Krabbe\, Chief Operating Officer of the Enoch Pratt Free Library\, will be introducing our presenters. \nAbout the Presenters: \nJillian Storms\, AIA\, has done extensive architectural research on numerous architects who practiced in Maryland\, including Clyde N. Friz\, AIA\, who holds the first architectural licence issued by the State of Maryland. She is a former President of the BAF and now serves as co-chair of its research committee\, the Dead Architects’ Society. She serves as a capital programs manager at the School Facilities Branch of the Maryland State Department of Education. \nSandra Parsons Vicchio\, AIA\, NCARB\, LEED AP\, is founding principal of Sandra Vicchio & Associates\, LLC\, with more than 30 years of experience in programming\, planning\, architecture\, and design. Her portfolio includes historic preservation\, renovation\, and new construction encompassing laboratory\, office\, academic\, administrative\, visitor center\, library\, and museum spaces. She co-authored the 2015 book The Living Library: An Intellectual Ecosystem and served as consulting architect on the Pratt Central Library renovation project team\, along with lead architects\, Beyer Blinder Belle\, and managing architects\, Ayers Saint Gross. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Hillandale Gateway Case Study:  Large Mixed Use/Multi-Family Passive House
DESCRIPTION:Hillandale Gateway is a mixed-use project targeting ambitious sustainability goals including LEED\, Passive House\, EnergyStar\, and NZE.\n\n\nThe Hillandale Gateway Project is a new multi-building\, mixed use\, mixed income development located in eastern Montgomery County\, Maryland. The project is prominently located adjacent to the Capital Beltway (I-495) affording it excellent visibility. Such prominence offers an opportunity to set a highly visible example of exceptionally sustainable development within the region. This Project represents a partnership formed in 2015 between two long-term community stakeholders with deep roots in Montgomery County: The Housing Opportunities Commission of Montgomery County and The Duffie Companies as represented by sustainability focused partner PS Ventures\, LLC. \nAs long-term holders of real estate\, the ownership team has recognized the values of quality\, durability\, and resilience from the very beginning. Hillandale Gateway will seek achievement of a variety of third-party certifications demonstrating the team’s commitment to setting new standards in sustainability and resiliency. The Project is targeting certifications including LEED for Homes Platinum\, Energy Star for Multi-Family\, Passive House (via Passive House Institute US – PHIUS)\, and Net Zero Energy (on one of the two residential buildings). Each of these ‘above code minimum’ standards offers a different focus which will be briefly explored during the session. \nSuch ambitious goals require the coordinated efforts of many professionals all working together and pulling in the same direction. Early in the entitlement process the Hillandale team was assembled (from all over the Country) for a number of design charrettes where Project goals were outlined\, significant obstacles were identified\, and various design approaches were discussed and challenged. The importance of assembling the correct team and ensuring that efforts are coordinated early in the development process will be a focus of this session. \nHIllandale Gateway will feature two separate residential structures connected by a common above ground parking structure. The design team worked together to identify products and systems which would allow for the achievement of our sustainability goals as close to cost parity with a code minimum approach as possible. The team’s methodology\, which favors use and adaptation of reliable systems\, iteration\, and a focus on simplicity will be discussed. The major systems being employed in Hillandale will be outlined and discussed (i.e. structure\, envelope\, heating/cooling\, ventilation\, & water heating). \nFinally\, with a long-term perspective\, the team has also demonstrated a “best value” vs purely “first cost” approach throughout the design and development process. The advantages of refocusing on the question of “Is it worth it?” compared to the far more common “How much does it cost?” will be explored. \nLearning Objectives: \n1. Understand what the Passive House Standard is (PHIUS) and how it differs from LEED. \n2. Recognize the value of early design team coordination in the implementation of a large-scale multi-family passive house project. \n3. Recognize the benefits of research\, adaptation\, iteration\, and simplicity in the design of systems. \n4. Understand the challenges and lessons already learned in the selection of products and systems utilized on the Hillandale Gateway Project. \n5. Understand the benefits of a “Best Value” vs a pure “First Cost” approach to development. \nPresenters: \nShane Pollin – Principal PS Ventures\, LLC \n Brandon Nicholson – Principal NK Passive \n\nREGISTER HERE
