The TLDR: walkable neighborhoods make for more fashionable people.

I am really worried about Druid Park Lake Drive because it feels like it’s still a highway and we did not get the road diet we need.
High visibility, Continental style crosswalk striping is required under the Baltimore City Complete Streets ordinance. Can you guess which of the below crosswalk styles is currently being striped on Druid Park Lake Drive?

Instead, thanks to the former Gov, we are still years if not a decade out from the site getting redeveloped. And costs have only gone up since then.
State Center in Baltimore should have been redeveloped years ago. Instead a redevelopment plan was blocked by then Gov Larry Hogan. Emptied out with workers going to other office building. And "gifted" to the City. Like. here, you take it.

I’m very proud of Baltimore and the state for what we have accomplished with our votes. In spite of the presidential election, we are trending positively towards the future and that makes me hopeful and a proud first-time voter in this state.

Proud to say that today I voted my conscience, on a beautiful fall day. Doing my part to vote for investment into Baltimore and against those who want to buy out the city. #baltimore #Election2024
