The Baltimore Greenway Trails Network: Connecting Baltimore's Trails

The Baltimore Greenway Trails Coalition seeks to create a 35-mile world-class network of urban trails that link together the diverse neighborhoods, cultural amenities and outdoor resources that make up the landscape of Baltimore City. The Coalition seeks to fill in the 10 remaining miles to create a connected urban trail network serving all of Baltimore. Incredible opportunities exist to complete this network by repurposing unused railroad corridors, outdated road networks, industrial brownfields, and inaccessible waterfronts into multi-use shared paths which will connect every corner of the city. Participants in this discussion will learn how a coalition of public, private, non-profit, and neighborhood led groups are seeking to turn these barriers in the built environment into community connectors through the Baltimore Greenway Trail Network.
Join us to learn how we are building a coalition as diverse as Baltimore to advance this important project and learn how we have been able to engage with AIA’s Urban Design Committee to bring the power of design thinking to this critical project for Baltimore’s future. As a recent study by EY examined, the potential economic and social benefits of implementing the Greenway will provide a significant economic impact to Baltimore in addition to providing equitable, healthy, low-stress access to open space and reliable transportation, healthy living, and recreation for people of all ages and abilities in every corner of the city. The neighborhoods within a half mile of the Greenway are composed of 58% African-American residents and have a home ownership rate of 48%, which represents similar demographic diversity and home ownership rates to Baltimore. The completed trail will bring economic and social benefits to a wide cross section of Baltimore’s population.

The Restorative Impact of Perceived Open Space
2020-11-09 12:00 - 13:00
Join us for a webinar from Sky Factory as we explore the restorative impact of perceived open space…

This course explores the impact of deep plan buildings on human performance. We analyze the role daylight and perceived open space play in shaping cognitive function, as well as how our psycho-physiology changes in interior environments.
The course introduces a new technology that proposes the restorative value of perceived open space in its two essential orientations: perceived zenith and perceived horizon line. Restoring these fundamental spatial reference frames through a valid multisensory illusion restores a range of wellness benefits normally associated with interiors applying biophilic design principles.
Learning Objectives
• Discuss the sky as the therapeutic spatial medium of daylight.
• Explain why circadian photoreceptors may generate a restorative effect on spatial cognition.
• Describe the link between our sensorimotor system, memory, and spatial reference frames.
• Summarize the malleable nature of human perception and how multisensory
illusions can make space.
• Explain the implications of deep plan buildings on human wellness.
About the Presenter
Geof Northridge has extensive experience in both commercial real estate and the commercial construction industry. For the past eight years he has been with Sky Factory developing and presenting continuing education courses on topics including the effect of biophilic design elements on human physiology, how biophilic illusions can be created to provide many of the same physiological benefits as actual biophilic design elements, and how knowledge of the mechanics of human perception can be paired with carefully crafted illusions of nature to alter how humans experience interior spaces.

Baltimore Arabbers Past and Present

A special Doors Open Baltimore presentation

Arabbers are street vendors who sell fruits and vegetables from colorful horse-drawn carts. Arabbing began in the early 19th century in cities along the East Coast, and many African American men entered the trade following the Civil War. With the prevalence of supermarkets and the challenges associated with establishing and maintaining stables, the arabber tradition is now on the brink of extinction.
The Arabber Preservation Society was formed in 1994 to renovate and promote the preservation of arabber stables. Learn about the history of arabbers in Baltimore and the important role they play in Baltimore communities today.
