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.

SUMMARY:Preservation for the People: The Fight for Development Without Displacement
DESCRIPTION:Photo of Sonia Eaddy by Charles Cohen/Poppleton Photo. \nDate: September 29\, 2022\nTime: 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM EDT\nLocation:\nMICA Brown Center/ Falvey Hall\n1300 Mt. Royal Ave Baltimore\, MD 21217 \n[REGISTER HERE] \nAbout this event\nAfter an 18-year fight to save her home from condemnation by Baltimore City\, Sonia Eaddy won. The historic Sarah Ann Street alley houses will be preserved and offered for homeownership after being rehabbed by Shelley Halstead of Black Women Build. However\, the story of redevelopment in Poppleton illustrates how Baltimore City failed to see and hear the people of this historically Black neighborhood along the Highway to Nowhere. Working with residents on research\, public programming\, and organizing to amplify the stories of legacy residents fighting for development without displacement\, we were able to achieve a reset on a misguided redevelopment project underway since 2004. The City’s stance is that we cannot change the past and must move forward in good faith. As a cultural historian and preservationist\, I argue we must honor and remember the past and how we got here in order to do the hard work to repair and make amends for the damage done to Black neighborhoods and people in Baltimore. We need real change on how development works in Baltimore and cities like it. \nAbout the Speaker\nNicole King\, Ph.D. is an associate professor in the Department of American Studies and director of the Orser Center for the Study of Place\, Community\, and Culture at UMBC. Her research focuses on issues of place\, power\, and economic development. She co-founded the Baltimore Traces: Communities in Transition public humanities project where students work with local partners to research historic neighborhoods and complete cultural documentation projects. She is an editor of the book Baltimore Revisited: Stories of Inequality and Resistance in a U.S. City (Rutgers University Press\, 2019).

SUMMARY:Baltimore – Rotterdam: Designing Cities (8 Week Webinar Series)
DESCRIPTION:Speakers:\nElina Karanastasi ex.s architecture\nMegan Elcrat\, Present Company \nThis webinar series is about design! During these eight weeks\, sixteen lectures\, we will open a dynamic discussion among Rotterdam and Baltimore-based designers on architecture and cities and draw conclusions on how design and policy can better the built environment for everyone to access. \nWe will observe how different architecture offices based in Rotterdam and in Baltimore operate in order to design (in) the city and improve citizens’ experience of space. \nEach week\, two designers will discuss design topics from a social\, spatial and architectural point of view specific to Rotterdam and Baltimore. \nDesigners have been combined to reflect similarities in size\, projects and methodology. Through lectures\, moderated dialogues\, and exchanges with the audience\, we will explore if and how the environment (historical\, political\, economical\, social\, environmental\, economies\, …) is truly determinant to the fail or success of a project and what that really means for the city\, the citizens and their well-being.

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: \nShaping public space comes with a special responsibility. Architects\, planners\, and designers must examine the impacts—both positive and negative—of public improvements on all members of a community and be intentional about how their efforts can create better experiences for all\, today and tomorrow. \nWith a commitment to crafting equitable and collaboratively-designed projects\, Mahan Rykiel Associates approached the redesign of Rash Field Park with intention and sensitivity. By first examining the context and histories around Baltimore’s Rash Field Park and the surrounding Inner Harbor\, then deploying a many-layered engagement strategy that prioritized outreach to underserved and underrepresented communities\, Mahan Rykiel Associates was able to set the stage for shaping Rash Field as a public space for all people—a park that could be enjoyed by visitors\, but\, first and foremost\, a park that would be cherished\, celebrated\, and enjoyed by the neighbors and residents of Baltimore City. \nSince its conceptualization in the Inner Harbor 2.0 masterplan\, Rash Field has been through multiple design iterations—each pushing the boundaries\, vision\, and ambitions for how Rash Field could be transformed into an amenity-packed\, engaging\, and activated space. Within its 3 acres\, the revitalized Rash Field features an Adventure Playground\, Nature Playground\, Skateboard Park\, Shade Lawn\, a Pavilion (designed by Gensler)\, and an ‘Instagramable’ overlook facing Baltimore’s Inner Harbor. \nREGISTER HERE

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: \nPrior to the processing of her archival collection at Morgan State University\, Victorine Adams remained obscured behind the imposing notoriety of her husband\, William “Little Willie” Adams. Yet she led a remarkable life and was the first African American woman elected to the Baltimore City Council in 1967. Adams also created two organizations\, participated in philanthropic endeavors\, mentored young women and maintained an impeccable reputation and social life. She was a self-assured woman aware of the distortion that surrounded her race\, gender and class in Baltimore. Join Morgan State’s University Archivist Dr. Ida E. Jones to see how Victorine Adams’ “compassionate conviction” compelled her to organize\, raise her voice and run for public office in service to the masses of underserved people in her hometown of Baltimore. \nIda E. Jones is an American historian and author who is the University Archivist at Morgan State University\, the first archivist in the university’s history. Her work has focused on DC and Baltimore-area African American history\, letting the voices and lived experiences of people tell their stories. She has published four books: The Heart of the Race Problem: The Life of Kelly Miller (2011)\, Mary McLeod Bethune in Washington\, D.C. (2013)\, William Henry Jernagin in Washington\, D.C.

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:Best Products “Tilt” Showroom (Doors Open Baltimore)
DESCRIPTION:OCT 28.  |  5:00 – 5:30 PM\nBest Products “Tilt” Showroom \nSuggested Donation: $10 \nThis presentation will dive into the history of the Best Products “Tilt” Showroom\, a lost post-modern landmark in the suburbs of Baltimore. The building opened its doors in October of 1978 in the Eudowood Plaza shopping center in Towson and immediately drew praise\, criticism and crowds of curious shoppers. This eye-popping architectural illusion was more than just a publicity gimmick; it was a surrealist-inspired work of art that sought to fuse public sculpture and architecture. \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
