About Baltimore

Camden Yards, opened 1992, invented the modern "retro-classic" ballpark template -- exposed brick, the old B&O Warehouse standing beyond right field, an urban infill site instead of a suburban parking lot -- that nearly every MLB park built since has copied. The Inner Harbor did something similar for downtown redevelopment a decade earlier, turning a derelict industrial waterfront into a template other Rust Belt cities tried to copy. Johns Hopkins anchors a biotech cluster that rarely gets Boston-or-Bay-Area attention despite real depth, with Towson University rounding out the region's research and talent base alongside homegrown global companies like T. Rowe Price and Under Armour.

Cleveland Lost More Than Half Its Population After 1950. Its Hospital System Is Now Ranked #2 in the World. Baltimore Rebuilt Its Waterfront in 1980 to Save Its Image.
