#DaysBetween: Looking Forward

As we look forward to James Rouse’s birthday, we also look forward to the future of his vision in both Columbia and the Inner Harbor.

Gazing at the transformation in the #MerriweatherDistrict, one can still see Rouse’s imprint on this core of the city. It’s a place for everyone, a place to come together, a place to inspire each other. As Michael Chabon said in the New York Times Magazine 10 years ago, Columbia was, “avowedly utopian in its aims, transformative in its ambitions.”
