We, members of the National Historic District of Hampden in Baltimore, Maryland, and those interested in preserving history, sign below in support of restoring and re-purposing 1501 W. 36th Street, which is scheduled to be auctioned off on February 24, 2015. We ask that only those who plan to restore and re-use the building be allowed to bid on the property, or, barring that, that demolition of the property not be allowed.

dont let them tear down another building. Hampden has enough modern boxes already, keep the original charm.

I'm a Baltimore native ~ a multi-disciplinary artist, living-history advocate, avid researcher, & a soon-to-be proud resident of Buena Vista Avenue. Only 3 months ago upon returning to Baltimore again from 2.5 years in Europe, I was shocked to discover just how little Baltimore legislators have learned in terms of the cruciality of preserving our historic architecture (& the stories attached) ~ just last week in my native Hamilton, an art deco building was razed to the ground to prepare for "ample parking." I'm very thankful for the work I see Historic Hampden Happenings doing towards increasing public awareness of issues around local history & its preservation & celebration, particularly within a community that has such a rich & complex historical lineage. I was quite interested to read in HHH that 1501 West 36th Street had been auctioned & bought. Immediately, thoughts went through my head wondering what would come next at the site & how it might be possible to make sure 1501 is appropriately & respectfully preserved, giving it the honour it deserves while continuing the intricately-woven narrative history of the Hampden / Woodberry area.
