That duplex looks pretty structurally sound---I thought the building would have been an eyesore. I wonder how much funding it would take to make the units habitable. Ideally, these would become affordable (or market-rate) housing, given that Hampden is one of the city's more in-demand neighborhoods. I also wonder what Wine Source's math is re: actually quantifying how lack of parking capacity impacts their revenue and how the addition of this lot is expected to improve revenue.

That said, this is the mindset (cars over everything) that Baltimore's generational lack of significant transit & micromobility infrastructure fosters among many of its citizens and politicians; and I hate that for us. It's hard to see this scenario playing itself out in any leading transit-oriented city in this country or abroad.
