DEATH BY A THOUSAND CUTS...

Controversy and conflict are nothing new to downtown's historic district but a recent article in The Baltimore Sun details how seemingly minor violations or disregarding of preservation goals can add up to major changes in the look and feel of our precious downtown. Is it wood? Plastic? Vinyl? Stamped metal? From plastic rose trellisses to "green" rooftops,controversy is always brewing (and coffee shops are proliferating too) in our historic district. Former Historic Annapolis President and current president of Envisioning Annapolis Greg Stiverson calls these creeping violations, "death by a thousand cuts." See the Sun's piece at:
