Inner Harbor?

boatme99 · Nov 6, 2020

Saw Fred2207's post about the Kite Loft leaving the IH. Is there anything left there that's worth a darn, or has it all gone to hell?
I do remember a year or two ago a news story about hundreds of the towns finest young citizens rampaging around there. I saw it here in Tenn. Yet my daughter in Elkton years nothing about it. I guess there was a local news blackout on it.

I used to stop at either Harbor East or Anchorage marina for three or four weeks on my way south every year. Harbor East was nice because I could walk to Little Italy, Anchorage, I'd walk over to Canton.

It's a shit hole for sure. Listening to the scanner on my way to deer hunting this morning at 330 there was a strong arm robbery at Pratt and Light streets ..20 Baltimore "yutes" beat up a guy and robbed him..stay the hell out of Bodymore

Where's Paul Kersey when you need him?

Lived in Bmore city for over 3 years and went into the inner harbor maybe 5 times. It's not worth it. They need to demolish Harborplace and bring in something new.

Fells Point and Canton on the other hand are generally great places to spend a day or evening.

the best spots in the city are not over commercialized. great food and enjoyment to be had all around the city, just not in the "touristy" parts like the inner harbor.

I've been traveling up 95 to Mercy hospital the last couple of weeks and have been pleasantly surprised at how normal the trip has been. Yes, there have been panhandlers and squeegee 20 somethings. Yet otherwise an unremarkable journey.

I worked on Pratt right on the harbor for a couple years. Depending on when you were last there you probably wouldn’t recognize Harbor East. It’s fancy and expensive now eith significant new development, and some of the big financial district businesses have been moving that way bc it’s safer than Harbor Place.

While I was working on Pratt, which was post Freddie Gray riots, it was getting steadily more dangerous at Harbor Place with increasing broad daylight attacks on clueless tourists. I can’t really speak to how it is now but sounds like it’s been accelerating downhill, especially at night. It’s all about the “L” - my wife did grad school at Hopkins for a year in mid East and there were so many broad daylight assaults that she had to shuttle the half mile from the parking garage to the school.

Only thing worth going to the inner harbor for is the aquarium or fogo de chao.

Harbor east is nice and they have private security patrol it. I rarely encounter and hoodlums.

this. even then I go to the DC fogo.

I kind of miss fogo but it's not worth the risk.
There's not too much else in the city that entices me to visit.

Baltimore is the Titanic.

Zero sense in climbing aboard for a couple of nice deck chairs.

The way the BSO is going they won't even have an orchestra to play while it sinks

Harbor Place has had a 45 year run but it represents when White Supremacy ruled Baltimore politics and tried to make Baltimore a place where people could live, work and play. It should be torn down.

I went to a conference there a year or 2 ago. I made a point of finding the coordinator and asking them what the hell were they thinking?!?!

They were telling people to walk down to the harbor and just wonder around like it was America..........

If they are sane they will never return to B'more.

My wife still buys tickets to BSO. I cringe every time. I love the music, but I loath going to Baltimore at night.

Still online trying to locate some mail-order ammo for his Wildey Magnum.
