On Sunday I ran from my house on Linden to the west end of North Avenue then all the way to the east end, then up Belair road a few blocks then all the way down Gay street, then ran on bits and pieces of Eager, Madison, Monument, Oldtown Mall, Fallsway, and back up Greenmount to 29th. I videotaped bits of the entire journey up to 29th street. I ran back to Reservoir Hill after 29th street. Total of 17.3 miles traveled. Below are links to the videos:

Oldtown Mall was the one place where I ran into very angry people during my entire 17.3 mile run. When I started to film the paved over northern Gay Street entrance to the mall a group of young men who were loitering beyond it (and who were so distant that I had not noticed them until they started to scream) started yelling at me and threatened to injure me and take my camera. I immediately turned off my camera and ran toward the area behind the mall while two of the individuals briefly pursued me.
Yup Baltimore sounds like it's on the up swing.

I wonder if this is the real Adam Meister. If so, I enjoyed the videos. Lots of good historical info in there.

It really is me. To prove it I can tell you that I posted 3 photos from my father's parent's wedding party right after I showed 2023 Ruxton. Here is a document which shows my father's Grandfather lived there:

The view from Baltimore Cemetery is magnificent. I wish I would have had a decent camera.

Very cool. Welcome to this forum. The dialogue is probably a little bit better than the commenters on your Charm City Current page provide but don't get your hopes up too high

HUH...guys chased you because they thought you were filming them??? Thats crazy.... though I would not want to be filmed per se.. only a criminal would take it personally that they "thought" they were being filmed therefore I must attack the person filming. You shouldnt have run though.... I would have just walked away..unless they were physically in your personal space and threatening you.. running just because someone yelled at you while not actually being in a physical confrontation will guarantee that you will be chased and AZZ whipped once caught in this town.. Im surprised they didnt catch you unless they just wanted scare you and run you off......

The truly crazy are the people who keep voting the same people into office who have allowed Baltimore to become what is today- a place where most people would not dare venture on foot (or car) into many of its neighborhoods. The leaders need to be held accountable for what anyone can see with the naked eye. As you have all seen, they do not like to be held accountable.

At least two of them threatened me. There were quite a few people with those two. It is pointless to stick around for that.
