Back in the 1970s my mother and I had the opportunity to do a walking tour of several Union Square houses (Mencken's house wasn't open for tours). Some were restored and some were a work in progress. The houses are beautifully detailed inside that would cost a fortune today to replicate, if even possible to do so. Glad to see some of the beautiful Baltimore rowhomes being preserved. Oh, and another Poly graduate here - class of 1969. :)
Seeing Mencken’s house is the lone reason I would visit Baltimore.

I went on a Christmas tour of old houses in 1986 and H.L. house was on that tour.
Thank you. Mencken was a great wit, truly a sage of baltimore.
Oh,you're all so wonderful and I even enjoyed those few seconds about someone's house. Congratulations to you all for your wonderfulness.
