Union Wharf, Bozzuto’s $70 million apartment project on the Fell’s Point waterfront, will be complete by the end of the year, the company says.
According to Jenna Miller, marketing manager of the Bozzuto Management Company, the Wolfe-Street side of the 281-apartment development will be completed between early May and late July; along the pier, the building should be completed by this year’s fourth quarter.

Now that the Area 43 dust has settled and Millennial Media has renewed its lease and plans to expand, Cantonites who live in the former Area 43 are wondering what the city will do next to help alleviate Canton’s park-ing woes.
Mike Beczkowski, Canton’s former Area 43 representative to the Parking Authority, feels like Area 43 should have been left in place.
“Or at the very least, we should have had the chance to vote for or against it,” he says.
Beczkowski notes that he respects the businesses in the Can Company, but “feels betrayed and hurt that Councilman Kraft didn’t do enough to support his constituents who supported RPP [residential permit parking] in Canton.”
“The majority opinion here is that we were sold out,” Beczkowski says.
Councilman Kraft declined to comment for this story.
Mike Sarnecki, who lives on Luzerne Ave., says he knew the end of Area 43 was coming.
“Because the city was unsure of Area 43’s future, you did not have to pay to renewyour permit in November. The city doesn’t give away something for nothing,”Sarnecki says.
Sarnecki had hoped Area 43 would be renewed or expanded, but not so much for his benefit: the retired fire fighter with two knee replacements admits he has had handi-capped parking for the last two years.
“I have older neighbors who can’t walk to a parking space several blocks away. There are also couples with kids who are paying high property taxes and can’t find a place to park,” he says. “They are ready to move out because of parking problems.”
Raylene Wase, a longtime Canton resident who also lives on Luzerne Ave. and worked to bring Area 43 about, says she’s disgusted by its revocation.
“Those Area 43 signs went down as soon as that law was passed. I’ve never seen the city work so fast,” Wase says.
Beczkowski says he is also disappointed with the Can Company’s gesture to the community—making available parking spaces in the evening and all day on the weekends for $50 per month.
He thinks it’s impractical and hardly a solution.
“Most people don’t want to have to get their cars out of the garage by 7 a.m.,”he says.
Wase believes a large, affordable, public garage would be more of a remedy.
When she recently heard that the Mayor’s Office had met with Safeway corporate late last year to discuss Safeway making its lot available (for a fee) or possibly building a garage, she was hopeful, she says.
“I know people who would pay to park on the Safeway lot. It’s open. People would feel safer.That would be wonderful,” Wase says.
The Mayor’s Office did not reply to emails from the Guide regarding its recent discussion with Safeway.
Just prior to Area 43’s revocation, Millennial Media, the Can Company’s larg-est tenant, extended its lease until 2015. The company plans to not only stay in Baltimore for at least the next two years, but also expand its 45,000-square foot operation to existing space within the Can Company.
Parking is specifically addressed in the lease.
“The Can Company shall endeavor to accommodate [Millennial] parking needs, including those necessitated by any expan-sion,” the lease reads.
TaVida Rice, property manager of the Can Company, did not immediately return calls or emails as of press time.

Southeast police hold open houseBy ERIK [email protected]
Last Friday, the Baltimore Police Department’s Southeast District held an open house, with a cookout, presentations, and ride-alongs available to community members.
The Baltimore Guide arrived a little late to the show, but got an impromptu interview with Major William Davis, commander of the Southeast District.
What’s new at the Southeast District?
Well, we have a new captain, Captain Kim Burrus. Our former captain Melissa Hyatt is a major now, commanding the Central District.
We’re getting more involved with our faith-based members. It’s a city-wide initiative. Last Tuesday [Feb. 26] there were about a dozen pastors and priests here.
Larcenies from auto are down! I don’t know the exact number, but we are significantly down. Last year, we were down 500 from the previous year. It’s continuously dropping. I think the key piece of that is people are getting the message to not leave anything in their cars.
Why were there a bunch of guys from Home Depot here last week?
They sent people from all their stores in Maryland. They built those new picnic benches out front and did a lot of painting, and also some concrete work in the cell block area.
We’re moving our entire detective unit in there, with interview rooms. There will be better rooms, more secure, and also a conference room. We’ll probably put a break room in there as well.
We’re also in the process of building our gym. We’re going to have a pretty decent sized fitness room down there with treadmills, bikes, some weights. There’ll also be a grappling area to teach self-defense tactics. It’s going to be like nothing else in the city, and it’s all through private donations through the Southeastern District Police Community Relations Council.
What is the craziest thing that ever happened during a ride-along?
Nothing! And that’s a good thing. With the ride-alongs, a lot of people get to see what we really do. Most of the time, it’s boring, but that’s good. I like it when it’s boring.
Yellowed Pages:News from 25 years agoThe high cost of going underground
The Feb. 11, 1988, Baltimore Guide includes an article on a subway extension to Johns Hopkins Hospital. Proposed by Governor William Donald Schaefer, the idea had originally “stirred up plenty of controversy.” However, State Comptroller Louis Goldstein eventually approved the extension.
“In initial meetings, Mr. Goldstein wondered aloud if a monorail would be a more viable alternative to reach Hopkins. The absurdity of the suggestion upset Gov. Schaefer, a strong proponent of the subway,” reported the Guide.
“Mr. Goldstein compared the estimated $326 million price tag of building the 1.5 mile extension to the $290 million estimate for the 27-mile light rail line in voicing his reservations about the subway.
We don’t call 911The owner of a Highlandtown eatery
shot and wounded one of two intruders who broke into his buiding, the Guide reported on Feb. 11, 1988. According to the Guide, the owner told police that he stayed inside his restaurant after closing time on the night of Sunday, Feb. 8, because he had had problems with previous burglaries. He told police he was resting on a couch in the back of the restaurant at around 2 a.m. when he heard someone breaking in. He armed himself with a pistol and confronted the two men in the kitchen, demanding that they freeze.
The intruders did not comply and continued moving toward him; the restaurant owner fired four shots, hitting one of the men in the leg and hand. Police placed the man who was shot under arrest; the other suspect had fled during the shooting. The restaurant owner was not charged with a crime.
ArsonThe February 18, 1988, Baltimore
Guide reported that a two-alarm blaze at the former Harbor Towing Inc. building, 2217-19 Boston St., was arson.
The ownership of the property was then “in transition,” according to then-Captain Robert Hatoff of the Fire Investigation Bureau.
“Neighbors told authorities that the warehouse was slated to be converted to condominiums by a developer,” reported the Guide.
The blaze was reported by a man visiting from Houston, who “heard the windows pop, then saw flames and smoke pour through the windows.”

Union Wharf: five-story apartments, six-story parking
“Our demographic is young professional, 25 to 35, single,” said Miller in an email. “Young couples and empty-nesters will be attracted to us as well.”
The project, located south of the intersection of Wolfe and Thames streets, is Bozzuto all the way. The Bozzuto Group closed on the 4-acre lot in November of 2011, breaking ground that same month, according to Miller. The Bozzuto Management Company will manage the apartments.
The 281 apartments are designed from over 60 different floor plans, according to Streppa, ranging in size from 596 to 1,435 square feet, from studios to two-bedroom units with dens. Rents range from $1,610 to $3,215. Units have stainless steel appliances, espresso wood cabinets, and granite counter tops.
“Residents pick water-view, city-view, and the different floor plans they want,” said Streppa, adding that the building is LEED-certified, a designation standing for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.
“Low-flow” faucets and Energy Star appliances are other green features that also lead to lower utility bills, Streppa said.
The five-floor residential part of the building wraps around a hidden, six-story parking garage with 1.9 spaces available per unit, Streppa said. The development includes 12,000 square feet of amenity space, including a lounge/bar, billiards area, theater,
and fitness center. There are also three “pocket parks,” Streppa said, and many of the individual units have balconies; some have terraces.
The development has some retail space fronting Thames St.; a restaurant is one possibility, Streppa said.
According to Miller, Wolfe and Thames streets will remain “cobblestone, pedestrian-oriented streets.”
“Generally speaking, traffic flow will remain consistent on Wolfe and Thames streets,” she wrote.
A 2010 memorandum on a preliminary traffic analysis performed by Whitman, Requardt & Associates determined that “the proposed development would have a traffic impact on the existing public roadway network.” The analysis used traffic data from a previous study, the “Southeast Area Transportation Study.” It found that traffic volumes at Aliceanna Street’s intersections with S. Ann St. and Wolfe St. were satisfactory, but the intersection at Aliceanna and Boston streets had more traffic volume than could be handled at an acceptable level of service. Furthermore, the analysis noted that the Aliceanna and Boston intersection was so bad that traffic frequently backed up on Aliceanna beyond Wolfe and S. Ann streets.
Aliceanna St. is a block north of Union Wharf, which the analysis stated “may exacerbate this super-saturated traffic condition at these intersections. The memorandum, however, recommended that rather than require Bozzuto to commission an in-depth traffic study for $17,500, “those fees should be used for the implementation of improvements as determined by the city.”

Manager Dre Williams of Shuckers Restaurant and Bar of Fell’s Point has seen customers try to avoid paying a bill before, but on Jan. 17, Andrew Palmer apparently took it to another level.
“He came in like he knew everybody, buying everybody drinks,” said Williams, who has worked at Shuckers since 2005. “He had a couple appetizers and a nice steak dinner.”
But the mood changed at the end of the meal.
“When it was time to pay the bill, he fell down on the floor and had a seizure,” said Williams.
When police arrived, “they knew him,” he added.
According to the Baltimore City State’s Attorney’s Office, Palmer struck again three days later, this time at Sullivan’s Steakhouse downtown. Between Shuckers and Sullivan’s, Palmer avoided bills of $61.29 and $161.18, respectively, and on Feb. 22 pled guilty to theft of less than $100 and theft of less than $1,000 for the two instances.
“For the first, Baltimore CIty District Court Judge Karen c. Friedman sentenced him to time already served in jail—29 days. For the second, she sentenced him to one year in prison,” reads a press release from the State’s Attorney Gregg Bernstein’s office.
According to Bernstein’s office, Palmer “has now been convicted more than four dozen times, mostly for eating at restaurants and then feigning attacks to escape the bills.”
The Shuckers incident reportedly occurred six days after Palmer got out of jail for an incident at Harbor East’s Wit and Wisdom Tavern.
Though seizures were new to him, Williams has seen different bill-escaping techniques over the years.
“I’ve seen people fake illnesses, or have everything be fine until it’s time to pay, and then complain about everything,” he said. “Or they say, ‘I have food poisoning,’ which is impossible because food poisoning takes 24 hours to take effect.”

Hamilton Bakery to offer ‘portable foods’ from new Fell’s Point locationby DANIELLE [email protected]
Hamilton Bakery, a northeast Baltimore city bakery known for its organic fresh-milled flour, focaccia, pastries, breads, cakes, and cupcakes is opening an outpost in Fell’s Point in early March.
Kristin Hernandez, who co-owns the bakery with her husband Ruben, wanted to expand the bakery’s range to other parts of Baltimore. Hamilton Bakery’s items are already sold at eastside shops like Fleet Street Market and restaurants such as
Waterfront Kitchen and Clementine.“We looked at a few neighborhoods,
including Federal Hill, and four or five spaces, and the
1,500-square foot space at 723 S. Broadway was perfect,” says Hernandez.
The Fell’s Point location, which formerly housed Mr. Yogato, is officially named Hamilton Bakery at Fell’s Point, says Hernandez. It will be a retail bakery, not a production bakery. All baking will continue to be done at the Harford Rd. location.
Because Hernandez wants the Fell’s Point
location to have more of a coffeehouse feel, the new bakery will have more sitting space than its predecessor, as well as wi-fi.
It will offer a full menu of sandwiches as well as quiches and stuffed croissants.
“We’ll also have breakfast sandwiches and pizza and salads,” Hernandez adds.
The satellite location will very much take on the personality of the Fell’s Point neighborhood, Hernandez notes.
“Fell’s Point is a little touristy, so we will be offering more foods that travel well, foods that are more portable,” she says. “Breakfast burritos and travel-size focaccia are just two examples we’re working on. We
also make a ham and Swiss on onion focaccia sandwich with apple butter mustard. It’s very popular right now.”
Hernandez says Hamilton Bakery at Fell’s Point will be open from 7 a.m. until mid-afternoon, but its hours may change as it acclimates to its new neighborhood.
“We’re seriously considering being open in the evenings” she adds. “We’re not necessarily averse to serving cupcakes or breakfast burritos at 3 a.m.”

Nash: The technical side of photography is easy CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
sounds the part, but his photographs show an appreciation for the temporary, the obsolete, and the forgotten.
“ZCBJ Lodge #296,” for example, is a study of an old meeting house—weatherbeaten and in need of, at the very least, a paint job—standing on the desolate Nebraska plain. It’s unclear whether the ZCBJ, an association for Czech immigrants, still meets there, or at all.
It is also unclear whether the smoking man in the stained jeans and hooded parka in “Butt and Bollards” is taking a cigarette break or just having one of many cigarettes he will smoke in the spot he has chosen for the day, behind some bollards and next to some Chinese trinkets for sale in New York City.
The ambiguities are part of the art, and looking at Nash’s photos, you can’t help but wonder these things.
Prior to Sunday’s exhibit, Nash spoke to the Baltimore Guide about photography and being a photographer.
On becoming a serious amateur photographer
I’ve been doing this for 10 years. This is not full time; I have a real job. This is a labor of love.
I got tired of playing golf for 30 years. And my golf game was getting [lousier].
On learning the technical and artistic aspects of photography
All that [technical] stuff is really easy for
me. The much harder thing for me is the compositional stuff. I took a few workshops, mostly only to find that the guys who teach the workshops don’t know how they [take aesthetic photos]. They’re completely intuitive as well!
I think Malcolm Gladwell had it right—that it’s 10,000 hours to become an expert at something. I think that’s a pretty good rule of thumb. I started taking pictures in the fall of 2003, and I didn’t take anything worth putting in a show until 2006. The only thing that’s changed is my ability to visualize stuff—what I want and how to get it on paper.
On embracing digital photographyI started out as a computer programmer in
the late 60s, and I never had any interest in photography then.
Believe me, after high school chemistry, I’m not likely to sit around blotting myself with chemicals in a darkroom. Despite my age, I’m more comfortable in the digital space.
What he photographsBasically, I do two different things:
structures and strangers. I take a lot of pictures of buildings. I have a lot of shots from North Dakota. I look for a building with some character—a cool old door or window or something. In Maine, there a lot of beach cottages built by people who just wanted to go the beach. I’ve been to Kansas and Nebraska, and also Colorado. I’m not photographing Greg Norman’s house—maybe some miner’s place in Leadville.
I tend to be attracted to vernacular American architecture—the normal everyday stuff.
A picture of an old living room for your living room? Nash enjoys finding character in “vernacular American architecture” and “the everyday stuff,” he says.

All in a day’s work: Saving cats and dogs, acting with Kevin SpaceyBY ERIK [email protected]
It must be nice: working a dream job while supporting a cause that stirs your passion—and having a solid backup to boot.
For Canton resident Dani Englander, the job is acting, modeling, and filmmaking; the cause is animal welfare. She gave up nursing 12 years ago to take the plunge into show business, but she notes that she still has her RN “in my back pocket.”
The jobMost recently, Englander played the First
Lady, wife of fictional-U.S.-president Garrett Walker, in the Netflix series House of Cards, directed by David Fincher and starring Kevin Spacey as a conniving senator.
Englander said that working with Fincher was one of the high points of her career.
“Even for that limited time, I was thrilled to work with a director of that caliber,”she says.
House of Cards film crews have been spotted all over Charm City, from Locust Point to Patterson Park, but the Guide has been unable to score any interviews or close-up photographs.
“Even as an actor, House of Cards was very top secret,” says Englander. “The script—with only my part—was delivered the night before. I don’t think there were any
big leaks about what was going on.”Producing her own independent film was
a different kind of career high for Englander.
“It was low-budget; we shot it in 12 days,” she says. “It was just insane, but also one of the most rewarding things—we did it!”
Between the big projects, Englander keeps busy with smaller roles, voiceover, print modeling, and other odds and ends.
“I have to do a lot of different things to stay busy, but I love what I do,” she says.
For those seeking a career in film, Englander warns, “It’s really not that glamorous, unless you’re in the top five percent in the field.”
Rejection, she adds, comes much more often than in other professions.
“If you do five auditions one day, and book one, that’s good,” she says.
Nevertheless, Englander says that aspiring actors should “go for it.”
“I think it’s important to do what you love,” she says. “Life is short; doing something you hate is not good.”
The causeEnglander loves cats and rescues them
from the streets—a friend commented on her beauty, but then added, “I always see her
in jeans, carrying a cat carrier, with a can of tuna fish in her pocket.”
Englander also loves dogs, and hates it that so many unwanted pets are euthanized in Maryland every year.
She found a way to apply her film skills to solving the problem. Englander directed and produced a public service announcement urging pet owners to spay or neuter their animals, and encouraging the public to support spaying and neutering initiatives. The two-and-a-half-minute video is viewable at savemarylandpets.org.
“Baltimore is not a great place to be an animal in the street,” Englander says. “Crimes against animals are not punished like they should be, and there’s a lot of apathy on the part of owners.”
Englander has always been an animal advocate and rescuer, “but it wasn’t until I moved to Baltimore that I started going into alleys and bad parts of town trapping animals.”
“I’d never seen anything like it,” Englander explains. “You couldn’t walk the dog at night without seeing stray cats.”
While advocating for Maryland Senate Bill 820/House Bill 767, which would establish a fund to support spay and neuter services for low-income residents, Englander is just as happy doing the grunt work, trapping and spaying 160 cats from the
With a face for TV and a voice for radio, Dani Englander does it all.

On schoolyard injuries: A fi ve-dollar insurance policy saves the day
BY ROLAND MOSKALSPECIAL TO THE BALTIMORE GUIDE
Growing up in Canton
Many adults across America have stories to tell about how, as kids, they broke their arms, leg, fingers—you name it. Many of us Baby Boomers have our own stories ready to tell our kids, the moment they fall and break something. They’re just circle-of-life stories.
Well, my story has a little different spin on it. It started on the PS 320 Canton schoolyard; I was in the fifth grade, playing outside after lunch, when tragedy struck.
My classmate Judy McCune was spinning around with her hands out, and I walked right into her. Her hand hit my front teeth—I guess due to the velocity of her hand colliding with my open mouth, one of my front teeth was sheared off, just below the gum line.
Some of my tooth was still showing,
but—horror—my nerve was hanging out for all to see.
Upon the impact, I saw stars and then felt the sharpest, knife-like pain I had ever experienced in all my 10 years on the planet. And then I ran home!
My house was just across the street from the school. I got home and called my mother at work. I was screaming over the phone in agony; of course, she quickly dropped whatever she was doing and came home.
“Back in the day,” as they say, schools offered something called Pilot Insurance for students. It only cost about $5 per school year, and covered all kinds of accidents. Luckily for me, my mother bought it every year for my brother and me.
So there I was, in 1958, with Mom, headed up to the dentist’s office, the place where torture never stopped. I didn’t realize then that I would still be dealing with this “minor schoolyard accident” in 2009.
The day of the accident, the nerve that had been dangling out was removed. They put in
a pin and and made preparations for my first crown. I had two more crowns since then, and in 2009, it was time for implants. The adjacent tooth had also suffered over the years, so twin implants were in store.
My dental coverage didn’t cover implants but my pocket money had to, or else I would be walking around looking like Gabby Hayes—there’s a name from the past!
(Editor’s note: George “Gabby” Hayes was a western movie actor who usually played sidekick to leading men such as Roy Rogers and John Wayne during the 1930s and 1940s. Prior to his movie career, Hayes was a young success who retired in his early 40s, but he lost everything in the the Stock Market Crash of 1929.)
A broken arm heals—for the most part, you don’t see any scars or think much about it after the fact. Dental accidents, however, must be taken care of properly, or be prepared
to face a life of quiet scorn, in all your personal interactions.
The insurance offered at Canton and a mother with foresight were the saving grace of a 10-year-old kid. I know they don’t offer that low-cost insurance at the schools anymore, but our president will have coverage for us all anyway.
Roland would love to hear from anyone else with memories of the old neighborhoods. He can be reached at [email protected].

BIRDS HOUSE: LET’S CROSS OUR FINGERS FOR ROBERTS
BY ANDY MINDZAK
The Baltimore Orioles are starting their spring off in style, going 7-2 in their first nine games, and part of that success can be
total of 115 games thanks to sustaining more injuries than you could shake a stick at. At the rate he was going, he would probably get hurt shaking that afore-mentioned stick.
Roberts has always been a leader and a fan favorite, which has made watching him sit on the DL that much tougher. What eats at him I’m sure is that he signed a four-year deal worth $40 million before the 2010 season and has yet to play even half of a season since.
Roberts is always helping out around the community, and is very active with the University of Maryland Children’s Hospital
through his One For All Fund. Baltimore can use the boost offensively at
second base. Robert Andino filled in nicely, but his .211 average last year left a bit to be desired, as did his .283 on-base percentage and 28 RBI in 127 games.
At 35 years old, Roberts could potentially be playing in his last season and will want to
go out on a winning team. If the O’s can continue their progression of quality pitching,
Roberts can certainly help out on the offensive end and hopefully help get the O’s past the ALDS and into the ALCS and World Series. If he is healthy and can play all season, there is
certainly hope that can happen.
Roberts makes the play at second.. Photo by Shawn Levin
attributed to second baseman Brian Roberts.
Roberts is currently hitting .538 for the O’s with two doubles and a home run and has scored five runs, giving us all hope that B-Rob is back and will last the season.
Roberts has had a rough go of things over the past three seasons. Between 2010, 2011, and 2012, Roberts has played in a

Englander: 45,000 cats and dogs euthanized yearly
Homestead Gardens neighborhood and 175 from the Park Heights neighborhood in West Baltimore, with help from other activists.
“Again, it’s a drop in the bucket,” she says, citing Save Maryland Pets figures of 96,000 cats and dogs entering animal shelters every year, half of them eventually facing euthanasia.
Maryland, Englander says, ranks 39th in the country in terms of how animals are treated.
“Granted, it’s up from where we used to be, but we can do better,” she says, adding that states adopting low-cost spay and neuter legislation often cut their euthanasia rate in half the first year.
“I just want to encourage people to step up and make a difference in Baltimore’s animal situation,” says Englander, who is also involved with Maryland Votes for Animals, voteanimals.org. “If animals aren’t your thing, you don’t have to own them; just don’t mistreat them.”
Nash: Taking photos of strangers is ‘athletic’ CONTINUED FROM PAGE 11
On the “strangers” side, it’s much more ‘go out on the street and take pictures of people you don’t know.’ It’s more, if you will, athletic. The people that are up on the wall [at the Salt Tavern exhibit] will never know they are up on the wall. They’re just normal people doing whatever they’re doing.
On holding a benefit exhibit for Patterson Park
I’ve been thinking about what this neighborhood would be like if it was just more houses instead of the park—it’d be a very different neighborhood. Patterson Park really opens things up and makes things a lot more attractive.
Also, [my photography] is purely an amateur thing. I give it away to people I know, whatever. It kind of feels better to do it this way, as a benefit, and it kind of feels good to support the park.
To see more of Nash’s photography, visit his blog, nashification.com, or his website, www.sprayedink.com/nashtastic. His work remains on display and for sale through the end of April at Salt in Butchers Hill.
