Downtown is the region's bulls-eye. If you say the word "Baltimore" to someone, odds are it's a Downtown image that comes to mind - the Inner Harbor, the ballparks, the skyline, or distinctive structures like the Bromo Seltzer Tower and Washington Monument. But, more than just an icon, Downtown is the economic and cultural epicenter of Greater Baltimore and this gives it relevance to everyone in the city and the five surrounding counties.
We've put together a crack team of, well... our staff to provide regular updates on Downtown Baltimore's social, economic, cultural, and political scene. And we'll pull in guest bloggers from time-to-time to provide different perspectives. What we won't be able to do, at least initially, is post comments from our readers. After talking to other bloggers about the experience it's clear that to do that well takes a lot of time to moderate discussions. But please click on the link at the bottom of the page to email us directly if something you read motivates you to write.
Thanks.
