At its location on one of Baltimore City’s highest points\, it offers sweeping views of Baltimore’s beautiful cityscape from its rooftop-level belvedere. \nA civic monument of architectural beauty\, exemplifying the design principles of the City Beautiful Movement\, the Roland Water Tower is a gateway landmark anchoring the communities of Cross Keys\, Evergreen\, Hampden\, Hoes Heights\, Keswick\, Medfield\, Roland Park and Wyndhurst . It is situated on a valuable tract of urban green space that is currently compromised by a chain-link fence. \nThe Friends of the Roland Water Tower is a grassroots advocacy group committed to restoring the Tower to a state of engineering stability and aesthetic beauty\, as well as exploring strategies to foster stewardship for the Roland Water Tower and surrounding green space for future generations. \nAbout the Presenter \nSuzanne Frasier\, FAIA\, is Chair of the Steering Committee of the Friends of the Roland Water Tower. Suzanne is also a BAF Board Member and Past President of AIA Baltimore. Suzanne is a licensed and registered architect with over 20 years of professional experience in the design and construction industry prior to becoming a full-time academic. She is Chair of the Department of Undergraduate Design at Morgan State University’s School of Architecture and Planning where she has been a faculty member since 2005. \nAbout the Baltimore Architecture Foundation \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) celebrates design and the built environment. Launched in 1987\, BAF encourages people to explore Baltimore architecture: to be mindful of the area’s history\, and recognize Baltimore’s architectural heritage\, and appreciate its design innovations. \nThrough its tours\, lectures\, educational programs for adults and kids\, exhibitions\, research\, and publications\, the BAF demonstrates how ideas are manifested in the built environment and urban design of the city. \nAbout Baltimore Heritage  \nFounded in 1960\, Baltimore Heritage\, Inc. is Baltimore’s nonprofit historic and architectural preservation organization.
