Baltimore Officials Urge Early Winter Weather Preparedness Amidst Cold-Related Fatalities

Baltimore city officials are advising residents to take early precautions for winter weather, emphasizing the dangers of cold exposure. Mayor Brandon Scott highlighted the importance of preparedness, urging citizens to assemble emergency kits containing essentials like blankets, non-perishable food, water, flashlights, shovels, and jumper cables. The city will continue to utilize its Code Blue and Code Purple warnings to manage cold weather emergencies.

Code Blue is invoked when the wind chill falls below thirteen degrees, at which point the city will also provide meals and home energy support. Last year, Baltimore recorded 18 cold-related deaths. Officials also warned about the risks associated with improper use of heating sources such as stoves, generators, and gas furnaces, which can lead to fires or carbon monoxide poisoning.

Downtown Baltimore Harborplace Redevelopment Faces New Delays, Pushing Construction Start to 2027

Downtown Baltimore Harborplace Redevelopment Faces New Delays, Pushing Construction Start to 2027

The ambitious redevelopment project for Baltimore's Harborplace is experiencing further delays, with construction now anticipated to begin in the first quarter of 2027. Developer David Bramble is spearheading the revitalization efforts, which aim to transform the once-popular waterfront destination by replacing vacant pavilions with a mix of housing, retail, restaurants, and entertainment, including waterfront parks and an outdoor amphitheater. The plan includes two new apartment buildings, one 32 stories and another 25 stories tall. These delays are attributed to legal challenges and other setbacks. The project seeks to rejuvenate an area that many residents feel has lost its appeal over the years, with some expressing frustration over the slow pace of progress and concerns about the potential impact of the new tall buildings on existing views and property values. Economists like Anirban Basu, CEO of Sage Policy Group, have raised questions about the financial implications for the city if properties lose ...
