Laurel Shopping Center

Laurel Shopping Center is an open-air shopping complex located in Laurel, Maryland, on U.S. Route 1 just south of Maryland Route 198, and is positioned next to the Towne Centre at Laurel. The shopping center is widely known as the site of the 1972 near-fatal attempted assassination on Alabama Governor George Wallace during his campaign for the U.S. presidency. History The $2 million shopping center on 15 acres (61,000 m2) was developed by Berman Enterprises LP and opened on November 14, 1956, with 30 stores. The developers also developed the Ingleside Shopping Center near Baltimore, Maryland. On April 24, 1964, the Hecht Company opened an 83,714-square-foot (7,777.3 m2) store, its sixth location in the Washington, D.C., area, at the center. A notable feature of the store at its opening was the French Provincial beauty salon and snack bar. The store closed and moved to adjacent Laurel Mall in 1981. Subsequent to the May 15, 1972, attempt on George Wallace's life, Wallace was left paralyzed from the waist down. A bank branch remains near the location of the assassination attempt – Equitable Trust at the time and currently Bank of America. Three days before the September 11 attacks, hijacker Mohamed Atta sent $5,000 to Mustafa Ahmad via a wire transfer he initiated at the Giant Food store located in the shopping center. Current Anchor stores include Giant Food, CVS Pharmacy, Harbor Freight Tools, Marshalls department store, and LA Fitness. The Laurel Shopping Center is adjacent to the Towne Centre at Laurel, which replaced Laurel Mall in 2014.

Elizabeth House

Elizabeth House is a nonprofit food pantry and soup kitchen in Laurel, Maryland. It was founded in 1988 and is managed by Fish of Laurel. History The Elizabeth House was founded in 1988 and is named after a volunteer veteran Elizabeth "Betty" Colnaghi. In the 1970s, Colnaghi began using her basement as a food pantry to serve low-income residents of the Laurel area. This later grew to include emergency financial aid and transportation. Since the 1990s, leadership at the Elizabeth House has disputed with City of Laurel Officials including City Administrator Ernest Saccanelli and Police Chief Roy Gilmore over how to best help the homeless population. Elizabeth House director, Robert Colnaghi stated that the two officials told him "we should not serve those people from Howard County that we're a magnet for homeless people from Anne Arundel, Howard and Montgomery counties." Saccanelli believes the services offered by social programs including the Elizabeth House attract more homeless to the city. The Elizabeth House serves people in Prince George's County, Howard County, and Anne Arundel County. The number of people supported by the organization has grown since its foundation. Boy Scouts of America collect donations that provide additional support in the holiday season. In August 1995, Elizabeth House served approximately 50 to 75 homeless people a night. According to Laurel officials, in 1995, the Elizabeth House served roughly 70 to 90 people annually. In November 2011, the Elizabeth House provides three bags of groceries to 20 families a week and 40 bagged lunches a week. In total, its 240 bags of groceries and 1,120 hot meals and bagged lunches a month. The former Laurel Mall hosted food drives to benefit the Elizabeth House. See also List of food banks References
Phare de Lazaretto Point

Le phare de Lazaretto Point (en anglais : Lazaretto Point Light) était un phare situé au port de Baltimore en baie de Chesapeake, dans le Maryland. Démoli en 1926, une réplique de celui-ci a été construite en 1985 sur le site d'origine. Historique Lazaretto Point, juste en face de Fort McHenry, tire son nom d’un hôpital de quarantaine qui s’occupait autrefois de la variole. Au moment où John Donahoo (en) a commencé la construction d'une tour de brique en 1831 , l'hôpital avait disparu. le nom était destiné à rester dans la tradition navale locale, cependant, comme en 1863, un dépôt fut établi autour de la tour pour la construction et le réapprovisionnement des phares dans toute la baie. De nombreux phares à pieux vissés ont été préfabriqués au dépôt en vue de leur érection sur leurs sites définitifs. Des sites industriels se sont développés autour de lui, ce qui a entraîné des années de plaintes pour la visibilité de la lumière. Une lentille de Fresnel de quatrième ordre installée en 1852 apporta certaines améliorations, tout comme le passage de l'aspect rouge à blanc en 1870. En 1914, la lumière fut électrifiée et la lentille de quatrième ordre remplacée par une commande de 3½. Malgré cela, la lumière devint de plus en plus obscure et l'ancienne tour fut démolie en 1926, remplacée par une tour à ossature d'acier plus haute. Cette tour a survécu jusqu'en 1954. À ce moment-là, le dépôt avait perdu de son importance et il a été entièrement fermé en 1958 pour être remplacé par un poste d'amarrage du terminal maritime de Rukert. Réplique Une réplique de la tour originale a été construite en 1985 par la Rukert Terminal Corporation en l'honneur de Norman Rukert, père, qui avait eu l'idée de construire une telle réplique avant sa mort. La nouvelle tour a été construite à partir des plans de l'original trouvé aux Archives nationales. Bien qu’il arbore une petite lumière blanche, ce n’est pas une aide active à la navigation.

LeGore Bridge

Begun in 1898 in rural Frederick County, Maryland, the LeGore Bridge was completed and opened to the public in 1900. It was built and maintained by the owners of the LeGore Lime Company, including local businessman James William LeGore and his company advisor, Eugene Hammond. It is 340 feet (100 m) in length, 27 feet (8.2 m) wide and 64 feet (20 m) high. The bridge is situated at 39°35'N 77°19'W. The five arch limestone bridge was restored in 1981 and 2009. The bridge was built for three purposes: as part of a hydroelectric dam for an electric railway going from the Nation's Capital to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, for transport of limestone from the LeGore Quarry to sales companies in Pennsylvania, and to accommodate the state-owned road for public travel across the Monocacy River. Several decades have passed and the LeGore Bridge is still used for everyday automobile traffic. The structure was included in the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.

Baltimore Design School

Baltimore Design School is a public charter middle/high school located in Baltimore, Maryland, United States. The school occupies the former Lebow Brothers Clothing Factory in the Greenmount West neighborhood, part of the Station North Arts and Entertainment District. The school was modeled on, and intended to complement, the Baltimore School for the Arts, which focuses on the performing arts. By contrast, Baltimore Design School's stated aim is to provide its students with "a solid foundation of design and studio skills followed by intensive academics and design study", by completion of four years of study in one of three tracks in architecture-construction design and management, graphic design-interactive media production, or fashion design, followed by three years of CTE training. History The industrial building that would eventually become the Baltimore Design School was built between 1915 and 1916 as part of the Crown Cork & Seal Co. which at the time produced nearly half the worlds supply of metal bottle caps (invented in Baltimore); the building was one of the finest machine shops in the country, producing nearly all the production machinery for Crown's plants worldwide. After Crown Cork left Baltimore in 1958, it passed into the hands of the Lebow Brothers Clothing factory, which occupied the site until 1985, when the building was closed during a labor dispute. After that, the building sat vacant for nearly 30 years. Portions of the abandoned factory were used for scenes in the fourth season of The Wire. The redevelopment was a product of a public-private partnership between Seawall Development Co., Baltimore City Public Schools and the school organization.
