Poppleton Historic Survey
Description
An account of the resource
This exhibit presents text and selected images from the Poppleton Historic Survey, conducted in 1975 by Phoebe B. Stanton for the Baltimore City Department of Housing and Community Development. Items in this exhibit are from the Greater Baltimore Committee Records.
Dr. Stanton (1915-2003), an architectural historian and chair of the art history department at Johns Hopkins University, assembled a survey team that included: William Potts, Susanne Moore, and Catharine Black, with volunteer assistance from Vivian Klein and Joyce Maclay.
The final report of the Poppleton Historic Survey is included in this exhibit, along with property inventory sheets and corresponding images of Poppleton businesses, churches, and homes. 105 images have been selected out of 600 negatives associated with the survey. 38 inventory sheets from the survey are also included in the exhibit. All materials are arranged by block and lot numbers. Corresponding street addresses have been included, when available.
At the time of the survey, the Poppleton area was bounded by two urban road construction projects that displaced residents and stirred public controversy: City Boulevard [1] (now Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard) and Interstate 170 [2] (which sought to connect I-70 with I-95).

Description
An account of the resource
This collection of photographic prints and negatives contains images of Baltimore buildings, monuments, and street scenes taken by Blakeslee-Lane, Inc.
Blakeslee-Lane was founded by two former Baltimore News photographers, George Walton Blakeslee, Sr. and Horace P. Lane, who opened a studio at 106 East Pleasant Street in 1931. In addition to illustrating news stories, their studio supplied photographs for advertising copy and soon gained the trade of the city’s major department stores: Hecht’s, Hutzler's, Stewart's and Hochschild-Kohn's. As a result of their success, they moved to 343 St. Paul Street and took on a third partner, Theodore C. Andersen. After World War II, the studio became a midtown fixture at 916 North Charles Street.
The complete Blakeslee-Lane collection at the University of Baltimore consists of 1.5 linear feet of photographic prints and negatives, which are described in the collection database. From the complete collection, 40 images have been selected for this exhibit.

Description
An account of the resource
This collection of photographic prints and negatives contains images of Baltimore buildings, monuments, and street scenes taken by Blakeslee-Lane, Inc.
Blakeslee-Lane was founded by two former Baltimore News photographers, George Walton Blakeslee, Sr. and Horace P. Lane, who opened a studio at 106 East Pleasant Street in 1931. In addition to illustrating news stories, their studio supplied photographs for advertising copy and soon gained the trade of the city’s major department stores: Hecht’s, Hutzler's, Stewart's and Hochschild-Kohn's. As a result of their success, they moved to 343 St. Paul Street and took on a third partner, Theodore C. Andersen. After World War II, the studio became a midtown fixture at 916 North Charles Street.
The complete Blakeslee-Lane collection at the University of Baltimore consists of 1.5 linear feet of photographic prints and negatives, which are described in the collection database. From the complete collection, 40 images have been selected for this exhibit.
