Butchers Hill photographer Cheryl Atkins is a master of atmosphere. In “Empty Benches,” an after-dark photo taken in Fell’s Point, the lamps on the promenade illuminate a contrast between the foggy air and the glossy—almost slimy—water’s surface. In “Eye Level,” the reflections in some shards of glass fallen on a farmer’s porch and the hints of bright green landscape pushing into the borders of the photo bring a sense of optimism to an otherwise abandoned and decrepit old farmhouse.

Atkins, 61, works in real estate with her husband Tom. As the couple buys and renovates old buildings, bringing them back to life before selling them again, Atkins’ photos are full of life and buoyancy, whether shots of old buildings, landscapes, flowers, streets or people.
In keeping with that theme, Atkins will be donating the proceeds of her upcoming show to Patterson Park Public Charter School, located at the northern edge of Patterson Park.

The long-awaited auction of the properties at 3236-3244 Eastern Ave.—formerly Haussner’s restaurant—was postponed before it even began on May 23.
Alex Cooper Auctioneers, who ran the sale, informed the crowd of more than 40 attendees that the auction, scheduled for noon Thursday, was cancelled because of ongoing private negotiations with a buyer.
The 28,000-square-foot building, owned by developer Joseph Schultz since 2011, was put up for auction along with two adjacent row homes at 3232 and 3234 Eastern Ave.
They would have been offered individually and also as a group and sold in the manner that produced the greatest amount, according to Alex Cooper’s website.
The opening bid for each of the row homes, both described as “in need of renovation,” was $65,000 per property; the opening bid for the former restaurant building was slated to be $250,000.

It appears that the Inn at the Black Olive is back on the auction block. On the Alex Cooper Auctioneers website, the 12-suite boutique hotel with roof-top restaurant and gourmet food market is listed for an auction on the premises, 803 S. Caroline St., on Thursday, June 13, at 10 a.m.
The auction is listed as a trustee sale and secured creditor sale “by the order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court.” The inn was also scheduled to be auctioned earlier this year, on Thursday, March 21, but a late bankruptcy filing cancelled the event, and the owners, according to the Baltimore Business Journal, were trying to work something out with their creditors.
The “Star Spangled Banner” is such an important symbol from the War of 1812 that the Maryland Historical Society will be making a replica of the flag that inspired the song.
Starting on July 4, 2013, the society will be using authentic materials to stich the 30- by 42-foot flag immortalized in Francis Scott Key’s “The Star Spangled Banner.”
According to a press release from the MdHS, over 100 quilters recruited from around the world will be using the “traditional stitching techniques that Mary Pickersgill used 200 years ago.” When finished, the flag will fly over Fort McHenry
The general public will be invited to Fort McHenry to add a stitch to the flag on Saturday, Aug. 3, and Sunday, Aug. 11. See www.mdhs.org/events for details and to sign up.

A call to the Inn’s owners, the Spiliades family, was not immediately returned.
The property, which was most recently assessed at $3.3 million according to the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation, had been foreclosed on for $5.4 million in mid January. The 0.115-acre site holds a 22,780-square-foot building, including the suites, restaurant and market.
The inn, which bills itself as “Baltimore’s Premier Boutique Organic Hotel,” is still ranked first among 69 Baltimore hotels on TripAdvisor, an online site of user reviews of hotels, flights and vacation rentals. Earlier this year, suite rates ranged from the mid-$200s to the mid-$300s per night.

As the Baltimore Guide was going to press today, at about 2 p.m., a train owned by CSX, a transport company, and a tractor trailer truck collided in the 7500 block of Lake Dr. in Rosedale, partially derailing the train.
According to radio and Web reports, the accident occurred near the Pulaski Hwy., and 62nd through 66th Streets were involved.

resulting from the accident was felt at the offices of the Baltimore Guide, 526 S. Conkling St., about three miles away as the crow flies.
From across Baltimore a huge plumeof black smoke could be seen billowing into the sky.
WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 2013 BALTIMORE GUIDE 3
The Patterson Park Working Group has reached a consensus—to meet again on June 18.
At its last meeting, on May 22, the group saw proposals prepared by landscape architecture firm Mahan Rykiel Associates, which is being contracted by the Department of Recreation and Parks to facilitate the Working Group meetings. Tom McGilloway and Nate Scott, both of Mahan Rykiel, have been moderating Working Group discussions and putting the group’s larger conversations—including points of agreement and disagreement—into concise framing documents.
Representatives of community associations expressed misgivings about the Mahan Rykiel plans, which in two cases added a parking lot immediately west of the Casino.
“The reason we are here is because of an unagreeable plan was presented six months ago,” said Joe DiMattina of the Patterson Park Neighborhood Association. “If we give the community another unagreeable plan, we’re going to be right back here.”
The Working Group also saw a proposal created by John Mariani, who represents the Fells Prospect neighborhood to the group and also happens to be an architect.
About halfway through the meeting, Butchers Hill representative Dave Phoebus presented Mariani’s plan as part of a “Patterson Park Working Group Community Proposal,” a consensus apparently reached at a separate meeting of those Working Group members who also represent community associations: Butchers Hill, Fells Prospect, Canton, Patterson Park (neighborhood), Patterson Place, Hampstead Hill and Highlandtown.
Beyond the community associations, the Working Group also includes representatives from city departments such as Recreation and Parks, Health, Planning, Transportation and the Mayor’s Office of Neighborhoods. It also includes nonprofits such as the Southeast Community Development Corporation, the Patterson Park Audubon Center, the Friends of Patterson Park and the Parks and People Foundation, as well as four schools near the park.
Speaking for the community associations, Phoebus stated that they reject the idea that parking and vehicular access to the park should be determined by park programs and user groups.
“Otherwise, you would be putting in a big parking lot down by the swimming pool,” he observed.
The Mariani plan would put a total of 13 parking spaces at the Virginia Baker Recreation Center and six spaces at the Casino, with two
of those spaces being compliant with the Americans With Disabilities Act. The four regular spaces would be just south of the Casino building; the two ADA spaces would be in the middle of the paved circle—which would be slightly widened to accommodate them—just southeast of the building.
Nine spaces at the Recreation Center would be head-in angle parking against the retaining wall just west of the building. There would also be four drop-off/waiting spaces along the west side of the building. Traffic accessing the Recreation Center would drive north along the west side of the building, and either pull to the left into one of the head-in spots, or pull into one of the four parallel spots (the drop-off/waiting spaces) on the right.
The eight existing spaces to the south of the building would be removed after the building’s renovation, as would the road that currently exists from the Casino’s front entrance to the Patterson Park Promenade.
Mariani told the Working Group that he had visited the John Booth Senior Center, and that members had told him that the center typically gets 20 visitors per day, many of whom, he said, walk.
“A couple people drove; a couple people got dropped off,” Mariani added, noting that the city’s zoning code has no parking requirement for senior centers, but that clubs and lodges need to have one space for every four users.
Rosalee Velenovsky, manager of the Booth Center, confirmed that the center gets about 20 to 24 vistors per day. She said that user Ray Lubinski often drives four to five people; sometimes he makes two trips. She said that other users park where they can, usually within a block of the center, or walk. She said that “at the most,” 12 cars are parked near the center.
Arnold Eppel, director of the Health Department’s Office on Aging, objected strongly to Mariani’s proposal on the grounds that it placed the bulk of the parking near the Rec Center rather than the Casino, where the senior services of the Booth Center would be relocated.
Chief of Parks Bill Vondrasek told the Working Group that he would evaluate the possibility of having some senior programming in the Rec Center as opposed to the Casino, as well as moving some of the traditional Rec Center programming to the Casino. He also said that he would have a traffic engineer evaluate Mariani’s plan.
Vondrasek said that once a plan is selected, the community association representatives might take the summer to go back to their communities with the plan. The Working Group is also discussing how best to continue its work on the park’s overall Master Plan.

Schultz also owns the former SEYA building, catty-corner from Haussner’s on the other side of Eastern Ave., which was also put on the auction block. That auction was cancelled as well.
Neither Alex Cooper nor George Schultz returned phone calls or emails from the Guide regarding the status of the properties.
The Haussner building has a storied history in Highlandtown.
The restaurant was known for its food, its art collection of more than 100 paintings (many of which were auctioned off at Sotheby’s when the restaurant closed in 1999), and lines of customers standing outside waiting to get in.
For years Haussner’s was one of Baltimore’s most well-known restaurants, its expansive menu serving both Old World specialties like sauerbraten, and 50’s-era, continental restaurant favorites such as surf and turf, shrimp cocktail and crab cakes.
The building today, which was closed to non-bidders about a half-hour before the auction, showed its age and significant wear and tear, including remnants of its last, short-lived incarnation as a restaurant, a
steak house in 2005.Local observers have hoped that Schultz,
who bought the building in 2011 for $500,000, would find a buyer for some time now.
Schultz had tried to turn the building into a brew pub with Baltimore Washington Beer Works, but that deal fell through in 2012.
Amanda Karfakis, president of Vitamin, a marketing firm on Eastern Ave. across from the Haussner’s building, said she would like a mixed-use development with offices, retail, and restaurants.
“But a school could work as well, or a co-op,” she said. “Right now, Eastern Ave. is kind of a thruway, except for when the Creative Alliance is having an event. I’d like to see the space used in such a way to attract a lot of people and bring some life to the area.”
The auction drew numerous onlookers, many of whom were curious about the sell-ing price. Some also came out to reminisce.
William Linsao, who lives in Canton and is the vice president of the commercial lend-ing division of Colombo Bank in Little Italy, said he ate at Haussner’s regularly years ago, and wanted to have one last look.
W. Scott Hannon, an attorney who has lived in Highlandtown for three years, said he came out to the auction for two reasons:
“I wanted to get a feel for how it looked inside. I had seen the restaurant depicted in an episode of ‘Mad Men’ a few years ago.,” said Hannon. “I was disappointed that [Alex Cooper] wouldn’t let any non-bidders inside to see the place.”
Hannon added that he was curious what the building would sell for.
“I’m interested in investing elsewhere in the neighborhood, and I want to see how the market is doing. I would also like to see this
part of Eastern Ave. improve,” he said.Chris Ryer, director of the Southeast
Community Development Corporation, noted that there is currently high interest in the neighborhood.
“If you look at the first, second, third, and fifth buildings on the north side of Eastern Ave., they are all under renovation now,” he said.
Ryer also noted the challenges that build-ings in need of repair can present to sellers.
“If a building needs substantial work, and you have an interested tenant, you can more easily get a loan for the work, get the work done, and get the tenant in there. If you don’t have a tenant, it’s more challenging to obtain the financing and if you can’t obtain the financing, well, you can get stuck,” Ryer explained.
Linsao says he thinks now is a good time to sell a building like Haussner’s.
“Momentum is starting to pick up again,” he said.
Linsao credited the market uptick to an influx of Hopkins residents who make East Baltimore, and increasingly Highlandtown, their home.
“Johns Hopkins Hospital is a huge influ-ence on the community, and the Hopkins influence is moving through Highlandtown now,” he said.
Ryer, who attended the auction, said he’d love to see the former Haussner’s building redeveloped.
“One idea I’ve heard come up is a market hall, where multiple vendors share the rent: something like the food hall at Belvedere Square,” the 100,000-square-foot retail, res-taurant, and food market complex across the street from the Senator Theater, just south of Towson on York Road.
“I also thought the brew pub idea was a good one. The neighborhood loves the idea of a brew pub, and the size of the Haussner building is perfect for a restaurant and brew-ing tanks and equipment,” Ryer said. “It makes sense.”
The old Haussner's building remains a hot topic among local residents and business people. | Photo by Danielle Sweeney

Francisco Milos, 29, is being held without bail on multiple weapons and narcotics charges. Baltimore Police photo
After raiding their home last week at 133 N. Kenwood Ave., police have arrested Francisco Milos, 29, and Lynnie Lewis, also 29, and charged them with multiple weapons and narcotics violations.
Police said that Milos had two AK-47 rifles and an AR-15-style rifle, as well as three handguns and a shotgun, in a safe in the basement of the home. There were also over 7,500 rounds of ammunition for the various guns, police said. Two bullet-proof vests, size large and small, were found in a hall closet. A large amount of cash, around $20,000, was found in the safe with the guns, according to police.
Also seized were several hundred grams of suspected marijuana, as well as a digital scale.
Milos, a convicted felon, has been charged with possessing a bulletproof vest in addition to the weapons and narcotics charges. He is being held without bail.
Lewis faces multiple narcotics violations; her bail was set at $50,000.
The arrests were made by the Southeast Squad of the Baltimore Police Department’s Special Enforcement Section. A SWAT platoon, K-9 officer and dog, and emergency vehicle unit executed a search-and-seizure
Guns, drugs seized from Kenwood Avenuewarrant on Tuesday, May 21, at about 9 p.m. The warrant was reportedly issued after a buy of marijuana was made and police observed the goings-on at the residence. The SWAT team was used because investigations revealed that Milos had weapons which he threatened people with, police said.

Not this kind of fi shing

“Anything fresh, dude,” he said. “Whenever you get your hands on some-thing good and fresh, it’s easy to make something good.”
He said that on "Food Network Star", the camera challenges—finding a balance between doing what he was told and letting his personality shine through—didn’t come as easily.
“You sort of think you can’t be yourself,” Henry said. “When you watch the Food Network, you see that they have a specific way of talking about food…People are picking at you, telling you exactly whatthey want.”
Love for the camera challenges or not, Henry does have ambition to be a TV star.
One of his inspirations? Donny Osmond.
“He was kind of like the sixth wheel of the Osmond Brothers,” said Henry, who in his youth also enjoyed shows like Hee Haw and the Johnny Cash Show.
“I wanted to do variety television,” he said. “It’s fun; it’s something I like. I’ve always been an entertainer. I’m a song-and-dance man; that’s what I like to do.”
Henry acknowledges that Baltimore, a relatively small city, has a big presence on the nationwide culinary stage. He gives credit to Duff Goldman, founder of Charm City Cakes and now a TV personality who, like Henry, combines music and food.
“He brought a lot of attention to Baltimore,” Henry said, adding that the city is simply a food paradise. “I’ve been all around the country, and Baltimore has some of the best food in the country,” he said. “We’ve got fresh produce and fresh meat. All that stuff is pretty awesome.”
Now 47, Henry works hard to maintain a balance between spending time with family and friends and his hectic schedule.
“You just make time for this stuff,” he said, adding that he and his kids will be touring the whole country in his RV this summer. “It’s going to be great,” he said.
“Pie—that’s my point of view; that’s my deal,” says Rodney Henry. “I’m always about pie. I always have been and always will be.”Henry is a Charm City success story. After leaving the Marine Corps, he became psychobilly frontman for the Glenmont Popes, legends in the local music scene. To supplement his income from CD sales and touring, Henry made and sold pies, with great results. He eventually dove full-time into the pie business, opening his own shop. Today, Dangerously Delicious Pies has three locations, including one in the heart of Canton, 2839 O’Donnell St.Now Henry’s touring again, and could be a major TV star in the near future. Look for him on ""Food Network Star"", a reality TV series on the Food Network in which the winner of twelve contestants gets his own show. The show premiers on Sunday, June 2, at 9 p.m.
In an interview with the Guide last week, Henry said that participating in a reality TV competition is every bit as exhausting as it appears to the at-home viewer.
“Hell yeah, sure,” said Henry. “It’s actually more grueling than you think. You’ve got somebody in your face all the time.”
Actual reality differs from reality TV in that “you’re not trying to impress somebody all the time” in the former, Rodney said. It’s the stress of “being on point” all the time that “takes more out of you than the work,” he added.
In "Food Network Star", the participants compete on two fronts. They’re trying to score on personality in camera challenges while backing it up in the kitchen in cooking challenges.
Henry prefers cooking.“Cooking challenges are the best part
about it because you’re doing something,” he said. “You don’t really have time to think about it; you just go for it.”
Beyond pies, Henry has a special affinity and talent for “lots of Italian cuisine,” which he combines with fresh seafood.

and responses to questions—with helping her become the photographer she is today.
“Now I shoot with a full-frame camera and have a collection of lenses, tripods and all that stuff,” she laughs.
While Atkins got started using chemicals in a darkroom, she has embraced digital photography.
“I like it for the pure reason that it is less wasteful,” she says. “You don’t have to waste solution and film to develop things just to see if you like them.”She also finds photo-editing software useful.
“I went from Elements to Photoshop, and now I have Lightroom,” she says.
Most recently, she has gotten into photographing “abandoned farmhouses and that kind of thing.” The photo excursions can be adventurous, and “trying not to trespass” can be challenging.
“Sometimes you don’t know you are [trespassing] until somebody comes running up and says, ‘You can’t do that!’”

“I just like what the school does for the neighborhood,” Atkins says. “With these kids around, the neighborhood’s so much more alive than it used to be...I just wanted to be a part of that, so I decided to donate to them.”
Atkins will attend the show’s opening this Saturday, June 1, 6-9 p.m. at the Laughing Pint, 3531 Gough St., Highlandtown. Atkins’ work will remain on display and for sale at the Laughing Pint through the month of June.
Expect to see familiar places, with a twist.
“A lot of people in East Baltimore will recognize a lot of the places I show,” Atkins says.
However, the places—new and exotic at the first glance—may take a couple looks to register.
“It’s different takes of what you would normally see,” she adds. “It’s looking at it in a different way.”
Having attained some notoriety for her “drive-by shootings,” or black-and-white shots taken from a moving vehicle, Atkins has lately fallen in love with a certain atmospheric phenomenon.
“I love fog,” she says, “and getting up in the morning to shoot in the fog. My show will be a lot about that.”
Though Atkins incidentally studied some photography in the 1970s during her pursuit of a painting degree—which turned into an art education degree—at Maryland Institute College of Art, she did not delve seriously into the camera until about 40 years later. Shooting on a Kodak Easyshare, she was encouraged by a friend to upgrade to the Canon Rebel.
In 2007, Atkins joined Flickr, an online photo sharing and posting platform.
“Then [my photography] really took off,” she says.
Atkins credits the Flickr community—the constructive criticisms, positive feedback, candid sharing of techniques

says Atkins. “We always say, ‘No problem.’”
Atkins enjoys shooting all over Maryland and beyond, but East Baltimore is a special place.
“I just think that we live in such a fantastic and interesting place,” she says. “I never get bored taking photographs here.

Archbishop Borders School students now have a new space to enjoy reading books, and it’s not a school library.
Thanks to a grant from Bank of America and the Ben Carson Scholars Fund, students at the bilingual elementary-middle school at 3500 Foster Ave. now have a print and elec-tronic book collection, and a dedicated read-ing room in which to enjoy them.
The grant of around $10,000 covered the cost of books, Nook e-readers, shelves, dec-orations, a sofa, and comfortable floor seat-ing, according to Kristina Collins, a teacher at Archbishop Borders who was in charge of putting the reading room together.
While the bulk of the grant money was spent creating the reading room, a portion of the funds are held in escrow for mainte-nance and replacement costs, Collins says.
What makes the reading room different from a library, Collins explains, is that it is dedicated to reading for fun--with the hope that reading for pleasure will improve student literacy, especially among reluctant readers.
“It’s a reading lounge, a place to enjoy a good book that you want to read. Students can’t take out the books. They can’t bring in pens or pencils either. That helps preserve the integrity of the books,” says Collins, who teaches sixth-, seventh-, and eighth-grade social studies and literature.
The Archbishop Borders School reading room is one of 88 Ben Carson Scholars reading rooms established since 2000
Budding bibliophiles get a new book roomBY DANIELLE [email protected]
around the country, and the 46th in Maryland.
Two other such reading rooms in the East Baltimore area are at Graceland Park/O’Donnell Heights Elementary and at Wolfe St. Academy.
Collins believes that Archbishop Borders School is the first Catholic School to be awarded a reading room via the Carson Scholars Fund. In order to get the funding to create a Ben Carson Reading Room, the Carson Scholars Fund works with individuals, businesses, civic organizations, and foundations.
The Carson Scholars Fund is named for Dr. Ben Carson, a noted Johns Hopkins pediatric neurosurgeon—now a player in the political arena—who sees reading as a way to unlock the academic potential of students and promote lifelong learning. In addition to the reading rooms, the Carson Scholars Fund awards $1,000 college scholarships to students in grades 4-11 who excel academically and are dedicated to serving their communities.
Collins says that the reading room was a school-wide project.
“The students had a say in what books were purchased and eagerly looked forward to the opening of the reading room last month,” she says.
“I ordered a lot of books for reluctant readers, such as Marvel comics, graphic novels, and Ripley’s Believe it or Not. It’s a pleasure for me to see the students devouring books and being completely engulfed. The reading room has already made a great impact.”

Then and Now: Lakewood Re-upholstering looks back at 75 yearsBY ERIK [email protected]
In this series, we revisit businesses that have served the local community for many years and have used the Baltimore Guide to successfully promote themselves.Walk into Lakewood Re-Upholstering Co., a small storefront on Fait Ave., and you feel like you’re stepping into a business of the past—business cards, old photographs, and newspaper clippings cover the walls. An old Borkum Riff (loose tobacco) can holds a drill, even though proprietor Ron Markiewicz, 66, gave up smoking about a year ago.In the back of the store, a doorway leads to stairs. A handwritten sign tacked above the doorway reads, “Come in! Call up stairs—this way.”The shop feels old and looks old because it is old—75 years old, to be exact. After working in the shop his whole life, except for his three years in the Navy, Markiewicz is moving on.
“It’s a little hard on me,” he says. “I hate to give it up.”Markiewicz is very tall and rangy, with long legs and arms. He stands up straight, and, despite breaking his hip not too long ago, moves with ease, stepping on and off a
high stool to remove pictures and clippings from the wall. He displays a photo of his father in front of the store.“The Shopper’s Guide did this in 1963 or 64,” he says. He also shows a clipping from the June 2, 2004, Guide—a story about the business and his father.“We had a hell of a business,” Markiewicz says. “We must’ve been doing something right in 75 years.”The shop is at 2512 Fait Ave., two doors down from the house in which Markiewicz grew up. The name refers to the shop’s first location, Markiewicz’s grandfather’s garage on Lakewood Ave. George Markiewicz moved the shop, but kept the name. The business passed from him to his son, Vincent, who died in 2004, and then to Ron Markiewicz, who is now giving it up due to some personal reasons. Ron Markiewicz poses just as his father did in the framed photo, which also
appeared in the Baltimore Guide (a.k.a. The Shoppers Guide).CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

BIRDS HOUSE: Jim Johnson
by Andy MindzAk
It has been a rough couple of weeks for Baltimore Orioles closer Jim Johnson.
Prior to Baltimore’s May 14 matchup against the San Diego Padres, Johnson had been perfect for the season in save opportunities, and his ERA was a stingy 0.95. Just two weeks later, he has four blown saves, and his ERA has ballooned to 5.25.
Johnson was cruising until the Padres tagged him for four hits and two earned runs en route to beating the Orioles 3-2. Four days later, he did not recover. Johnson came in to protect a 6-5 Oriole lead against the Tampa Bay Rays, but left after giving up five earned runs and retiring only one batter. Baltimore lost 10-6.
Johnson’s next outing was against the
New York Yankees. Also not good. He blew another save—his third in as many chances—as New York won 6-4.
The following night, JJ started to get his act together, picking up a win against New York. He subsequently went on to earn his 15th save against the Toronto Blue Jays. Unfortunately, he would regress again, blowing the next save against Toronto, giving up four earned runs while only retiring two batters.
In 25 games, Johnson has blown four saves so far this year. Last year, he missed only three save chances in 71 games.
In 2012, Johnson was lights out, setting a Baltimore record and leading the majors with 51 saves. JJ then had some trouble in the playoffs with the Yankees as he took a loss and also blew a save in their five-game series.
The good news is that Johnson seemed to bounce back from that just fine. He started off the 2013 season strong, taking advantage of 14 straight save opportunities. While things might be a little concerning right now, something tells me Johnson will get back on track and be the closer the Orioles know he can be.
