From Councilman Eric Costello:

UPDATE – Shooting / Homicide – May 28 @ ~7:34pm – 300 block of E Pratt St – Joint Statement from Downtown Partnership of Baltimore President Shelonda Stokes, Waterfront Partnership President Laurie Schwartz, and Councilman Eric T. Costello:

“It’s with both a heavy heart and an awareness of the safety issues Downtown and in the Inner Harbor that we write to you on a Sunday afternoon. By now, you may know that two people were shot at the Inner Harbor last night around 7:30pm. Tragically, one of the victims, a 17-year-old male, died. This loss of life impacts not only the families of those involved, but it adds a level of fear to those who chose to live, work, or visit the city.

We have been in several meetings with the Baltimore Police Department and Mayor’s Office. And these conversations didn’t just start post-incident; we’ve been collaborating consistently as we head into each weekend with a coordinated deployment plan. But even with an increased presence of 20 officers near the location of the shooting, a life was still taken. We agree that it’s unconscionable, we also recognize that action is required.

We are aware of additional sanctioned and unsanctioned events planned for the weekend. BPD is communicating with other law enforcement agencies and community organizations regarding their efforts to ensure adequate public safety presence to ensure that Downtown and the Inner Harbor are safe for everyone. Short-term, there are increased safety efforts and intelligence. They are also exploring new strategies. Long-term, we recognize the importance of engaging and servicing our disconnected youth with hopes of positively impacting how they view life. The solution is city-wide and goes beyond law enforcement to include policy updates, family support, and business engagement.”

According to the Baltimore Police Department (BPD)  Crime Map, the following crimes were from 5/18/22 to 5/24/22.

4th of July Fireworks Returning to the Inner Harbor this Year

Baltimore Office of Promotion & The Arts press release: 

Mayor Brandon M. Scott announces the return of festivities and fireworks to the Inner Harbor on Monday, July 4, 2022, from 4:00–10:00 p.m. “I am genuinely excited to announce that our 4th of July celebration, including fireworks, will be back and bigger than ever for Summer 2022,” says Mayor Scott. This multifaceted event is produced by a tremendous partnership of prominent Baltimore organizations coming together under Mayor Scott’s leadership to give Baltimore something beautiful to celebrate.

The Baltimore Office of Promotion & The Arts (BOPA), Baltimore Symphony Orchestra (BSO), and Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore (WPB) are collaborating on the evening’s programming to create a truly special event for the Baltimore community, the people of Maryland, and visiting guests. Also participating in the day’s festivities is a host of renowned Baltimore institutions including the Downtown Partnership of Baltimore (DPOB), Baltimore Orioles, American Visionary Arts Museum (AVAM), National Aquarium in Baltimore, and media partner WJZ.

“When Baltimore’s world-class arts and cultural institutions collaborate on events like this, we amplify each other’s work and strengthen what is great about Baltimore — our sense of community and our Charm City pride. This spectacular free Independence Day celebration with music, history and performing arts is worthy of Baltimore and we are thrilled to invite residents and visitors to what we hope will be the first of many collaborative celebrations,” says BOPA CEO Donna Drew Sawyer.

Looking forward to the festivities, Laurie Schwartz, President of Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore, adds, “We are delighted to see the Promenade activated from Fells Point to Rash Field as we celebrate this monumental occasion and welcome the BSO to Rash Field Park. We will see a return to the tradition of fireworks over the harbor and a spectacular day-long experience for Baltimoreans downtown. The Waterfront Partnership will also curate street performers between activities adding even more magic and awe as downtown organizations and talent join forces to shed light on what makes Baltimore so very special.”

The event will kick off at 4:00 p.m. with a traditional performance by the United States Navy’s oldest band, the Navy Band Commodores, at the Inner Harbor Amphitheater. The performance will last about 2.5 hours with a brief intermission. Between concerts, there will be street performers and activities from various attractions along the entire promenade. Additionally, WPB and DPOB are teaming up to coordinate local food trucks at West Shore Park by the Vistors Center.

Mayor Scott is excited to announce that BSO Artistic Partner and Baltimorean Wordsmith will deliver a spoken word performance of Frederick Douglass’ “What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?” from the BGE Pavilion mainstage in Rash Field Park at 7:30 p.m. Then at 8:00 p.m., the BSO will host a Star- Spangled Celebration concert under the baton of Assistant Conductor Jonathan Rush at the BGE Pavilion in the newly renovated Rash Field Park. “The BSO is proud to be part of a grand return to community celebrations this Fourth of July,” says BSO President and CEO Mark Hanson. “This holiday is a time to celebrate all the creativity that Baltimore has to offer, and we’re looking forward to joining with a free, patriotic performance, bringing the entire BSO downtown to our city’s newly renovated Rash Field.”

The full orchestra performance, sponsored by PNC Bank, will culminate around 9:30 p.m. with a dazzling 13-minute fireworks display produced by fireworks company Pyrotecnico. The best views are along the Inner Harbor promenade and surrounding areas, including Canton, Federal Hill, Fells Point, Harbor East, and Locust Point. “Commemorating our Nation’s anniversary with a special Fourth of July celebration at Baltimore’s Inner Harbor is a statement to the importance this location holds in the history of America,” says Laura Gamble, PNC regional president for Greater Maryland. “PNC Bank, as long-time resident of the Inner Harbor, is honored to be sponsoring the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra’s participation in this event and proud to bring all of the parties together to make it happen.”

“A huge thanks to BOPA, the Waterfront Partnership, BSO, and PNC Bank for making this event possible, and special thanks to the Downtown Partnership, Baltimore Orioles, National Aquarium, American Visionary Arts Museum, and WJZ for partnering to add to the day’s festivities,” Mayor Scott says. “It has been an extremely long two years, and I am thrilled to welcome residents and visitors from all over the region back to the world-famous Inner Harbor for a fun-filled day celebrating our nation’s independence.”

Echoing the Mayor’s enthusiasm, WJZ Vice President and General Manager Kathy Hostetter says, “WJZ has a strong history of supporting the local communities we serve. We couldn’t be more excited about the opportunity to bring together our sports, cultural arts, and downtown partnership communities in this very fun-filled and patriotic way.”

In the spirit of partnership, ticketholders to the Orioles’ afternoon home game on July 4 will be able to extend their stadium parking through the evening at no extra cost. Plus, members of the BSO will deliver a special performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner” at Oriole Park to kick off a day of celebrations.

After several years off, AVAM is holding their Pet Parade and Animal Talent Show. Pets of all kinds are encouraged to enter. AVAM founder Rebecca Hoffberger says, “Be they our healing helpers or best friends, our American Visionary Art Museum celebrates our Fourth of July with a patriotic salute to our beloved pets! Come see our costumed parade of owner, kid and adult, and adored pet creature, and for our moment of silence for those lost — including war dogs and porpoises.” Pet registration begins at 8:30 a.m. and the pet parade begins at 9:00 a.m. Participation is free. For more information, visit www.avam.org.

Festivities don’t stop there: For the first time in three years, Top of the World Observation Level, managed by BOPA, is hosting Picnic at the Top on Monday, July 4, 2022, from 7:30–10:00 p.m. This family-friendly event features a one-of-a-kind view of the Inner Harbor and the fireworks display, food, beverage, children’s activities, a DJ, and photo booth. Doors open at 7:00 p.m. For tickets, visit www.viewbaltimore.org.

Light Street Cafe Relocating From Federal Hill to 414 Light Street Tower

Light Street Cafe has closed after almost 10 years at 1121 Light St. in Federal Hill, but will be relocating to the 414 Light St. apartment tower in Ottberbein/Federal Hill. Owner Rikki Vaughn told SouthBMore.com he expects the new location to open in the fourth quarter of this year.

Vaughn said Light Street Cafe has outgrown its space in Federal Hill, which only has eight tables. The new location will have first-floor and loft seating inside for 144, as well as seating for 37 customers outside.

Light Street Cafe did not have any outdoor seating at its old location because of the small sidewalk on Light St. Vaughn said the lack of outdoor seating and the limited space inside made the COVID-19 pandemic a challenge. With the lease up at 1121 Light St., Vaughn is not sure what will happen next for the building.

The new Light Street Cafe will have more of a “modern feel” on the inside, noted Vaughn.

Vaughn hopes the new location will bring in Light Street Cafe’s loyal customers, as well as tourists and more office workers. Management team members from 414 Light Street were customers of Light Street Cafe and Vaughn credits one of its residents for the reason he took a look at the retail space in the building.

Vaughn and his business partner Candice Green are also about to open a concept called Let’s Brunch at the former The Dizz at 300 W. 30th St. in Remington. Let’s Brunch will have brunch plates and a signature mimosa menu. Vaughn and Green are looking to franchise this concept.

Vaughn and Green are also opening two new concepts at the new Northwood Commons shopping center across from Morgan State University, as well as a coffee shop in Fell’s Point.

Vaughn and Green additionally own a large portfolio of Dunkin’ Donuts and Checkers locations, as well as daycare centers. They have a total of more than 4,720 employees across the country.

With Light Street Cafe’s new location across from the Harborplace pavilions, which have been shedding tenants and in receivership for several years, Vaughn said he is optimistic about its direction after the recent news of Baltimore-based MCB Real Estate taking over. MCB is Vaughn’s landlord’s at Northwood Commons.

“I know the upcoming management and it will do well,” said Vaughn, who noted he’s excited to see new marketing and a safety plan put in place for the pavilions.

New location at 414 Light Street

2026 World Cup Cities to be Announced on June 16th

Baltimore will find out on June 16th if M&T Bank Stadium is selected for the 2026 FIFA World Cup hosted by North America. The selections will be live-streamed by FIFA. A total of 16 American cities remain in contention to host matches and 10 will be selected. The event will also have matches played in Canada and Mexico.

Baltimore recently joined forces with Washington, D.C. on a joint bid that has matches slated to be played in South Baltimore.

The event will feature teams from 48 countries. There will be 60 matches played in the United States.

Baltimore could potentially host Group Stage or Knockout Stage matches.

The North American cities that remain in contention are Atlanta, Boston, Cincinnati, Dallas, Denver, Edmonton, Guadalajara, Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Miami, Monterrey, Nashville, New York/New Jersey, Orlando, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto, Vancouver and Washington, D.C./Baltimore.

The Ravens recently completed a $120-million upgrade to M&T Bank Stadium with more improvements under consideration following new legislation that allows the stadium to have $600 million in bond debt.

The Baltimore Maryland 2026 bid touted investment around the stadium, including at Warner Street District, Stadium Crossing, and Stadium Square, to strengthen its bid.

Baltimore hosted FIFA officials on September 19th during the Chiefs vs. Ravens game at M&T Bank Stadium when the Ravens came back to win in exciting fashion.

“I think we presented the declaration that we are a can-do city. We are authentic and our stadium comes alive for big events,” Maryland Sports Commission Terry Hasseltine told SouthBMore.com following the game. Maryland Sports Commission has been leading Baltimore’s World Cup campaign.

In the joint bid, Washington, D.C. would host the flagship Fan Fest, but Baltimore would still have its own Fan Fest.

Baltimore Maryland 2026 proposed sites such as South Point in Port Covington, Federal Hill Park, the Inner Harbor promenade, Fort McHenry, and Harbor Point for the official World Cup fan fest.

Giant Food Taking Over the Shoppers Space at Southside Marketplace

Regency Centers Vice President Andrew Kabat confirmed to SouthBMore.com today the replacement for Shoppers at Southside Marketplace will be Giant Food. Shoppers is set to close on May 28th and Giant hopes to open by the end of this year.

The 44,264 sq. ft. Shoppers had been for sale since 2019. UNFI acquired Shoppers’ former parent company, SUPERVALU, in 2018. Shoppers was started in Washington, D.C. and was acquired by SUPERVALU in 1999. UNFI is a food distributor and is transitioning out of the retail business after the acquisition of SUPERVALU.

Giant has not responded to multiple requests for comment in recent weeks. The company is based in Landover and has 169 stores in the region.

Kabat told SouthBMore.com Regency Centers is excited about the addition of Giant.

Multiple Shoppers employees have recently told SouthBMore.com they have not heard from Giant officials about job openings, but were aware the company was taking over the space.

In 2019, there were 36 Shoppers locations. Today, 20 locations remain open.

The Shoppers in Brooklyn Park is now a Lidl.

HomeSlyce Reopens in South Baltimore

HomeSlyce opened last month at its new “Federal Hill location” at the 2 East Wells apartment building in South Baltmore. HomeSlyce was previously open at 1741 Light St. for nine years, but closed for dine-in service this past year while navigating the COVID-19 pandemic and transitioning to its new location less than two blocks south.

HomeSlyce reopened on April 16th which was the 10-year anniversary of opening its location on Light St. HomeSlyce started in South Baltimore, but now has six locations. It has three other locations in Baltimore City, one in Columbia, and one in Washington, D.C.

HomeSlyce went from 2,500 sq. ft. of space on Light St. to 2,000 sq. ft. of space at 2 East Wells. HomeSlyce co-owner Haluk Kantar told SouthBMore.com the former building needed a lot of upgrades and the new space is more modern. He is excited to be a little closer to the boom of new residential around Wells St.

The new space was last home to Baltimore Soup Company before it closed in 2018.

HomeSlyce changed up its theme a bit at the new location. It no longer has bar, but does have a self-service draft wall with 16 beers. It will soon add wines and mixed drinks to the draft lineup. Customers can order beer by the ounce.

While the new location no longer has a bar or bartenders, it does have a communal table. HomeSlyce co-owner Dogan Salis noted the change in concept was due to the labor shortage.

“We received some good feedback, but some people really want a bar,” said Salis. “We are crossing our fingers and hopeful people will get used to it. People can try a lot of different types of beer from the draft wall.”

Salis noted HomeSlyce has been “really busy” since reopening. “We are super excited to be open and running again,” he added.

The food menu will remain the same with HomeSlyce’s gourmet pizzas, Slyces, calzones, wings, sandwiches, salads, appetizers, and desserts. Specials will include 8-inch pizzas every day for lunch and 10-inch pizzas for $12 on Wednesdays.

HomeSlyce still offers its own delivery services.

There are customer parking spaces in the garage at 2 East Wells.

HomeSlyce is open Sunday to Thursday from 11am to 10pm and Friday and Saturday from 11am to 11pm.

This new HomeSlyce location will soon be turned over to two local franchise owners.
