With Harborplace, it’s time to move past nostalgia and embrace progress

Harborplace and I share a history. Born the same year it opened, I spent summers downtown with my family, enjoying crabs at Phillips and taking in the Inner Harbor’s energy. It was a symbol of Baltimore’s pride. Later, when I started my career at Baltimore Development Corp., I became the Inner Harbor coordinator, serving the very place that shaped my memories and those of countless Baltimoreans.
