    WHAT'S HAPPENING

    Scenes from the four seasons decorate the boat, which was donated by Outward Bound.

    They painted it last week; theyll be planting native vegetation in it this week. The plant-laden canoe will be placed near the Baltimore St. entrance to Patterson Park.

    The idea, Creamer said, is that the vegetation will provide food for bugs, which will provide food for the migratory birds that use the park as a pit stop.

    Susie Creamer, education coordinator at the Patterson Park Audubon Center, was looking for a project her environmentally-oriented organization could share with the Latino mothers that she had come to know through Audubons childrens programs in Spanish.

    She found it in a busted canoe.Last Friday, the group of mothers, called Mis Raices (My Roots),

    painted the canoe on the grounds of Patterson Park Public Charter School, where their children attend classes.

    Residents of Upper Fells Point, and Southeast Baltimore, were shocked last week by a double homicide.

    On Tuesday, Nov. 5, at about 4:45 p.m., brothers Karl Berrain, 30, and Kurt Berrain, 25, were shot, both in the head, on the 200 block of S. Wolfe St.

    They were pronounced dead shortly after, at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

    As helicopters hovered overhead and sirens wailed, Southeast residents asked each other what had happened.

    Karl Berrain lived on the 1100 block of Payson St.; Kurt Berrain lived on the 3100 block of Fairmount Ave.

    The double shooting occurred on a busy north-south street, in broad daylight, near the Wolfe Street Academy, a pre-K through grade 5 elementary school at Wolfe and Gough streets.

    On Nov. 7, police announced that they had arrested Devon Ferguson, 25, for the double homicide. Ferguson has been charged with two counts of first-degree murderone count for each victimand two counts of second-degree murder. He also faces assault and firearms charges.

    According to police statements in charging documents, either Kurt or Karl Berrain spoke to a woman in Fergusons company, precipi-tating an argument and, subsequently, the murders.

    First District Councilman Jim Kraft report-ed to residents that the initial argument may have occurred near the intersection of Orleans and Wolfe streets, and that Ferguson again caught up with the Berrain brothers at the 200 block of Wolfe St., where he killed them.

    Ferguson had a criminal record, as did Kurt and Karl Berrain.

    The shootings happened within the borders of the Fells Prospect Community Association.

    Victor Corbin, president of FPCA, said that he hopes that the double homicide was an isolated incident.

    Were concerned that some of the violence in the city is filtering into our neighborhood, he said.

  • WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2013 BALTIMORE GUIDE 3WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2013

    For both its role in Baltimores history and its distinctive structure and architecture, Messiah English Lutheran Church, 1025 S. Potomac St., at the eastern end of Cantons ODonnell Square, has been designated a landmark by the Baltimore City Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation.

    It feels sort of justifying, said Rev. Lee Hudson, current pastor of the church. Weve stuck it out here for 124 years, and someone noticed.

    Since the cornerstone was laid in 1900, the church has been involved in several social and cultural movements. According to a report written by Lauren Schiszick of CHAP, Messiah Church was one of the early Lutheran churches to conduct services and Sunday school in English, which was viewed as a crucially important way to keep young people in the Lutheran faith and retain their German culture, but also help them be successful in America by teaching them English, writes Schiszick.

    This church in particular served as a stepping-stone for German immigrants and German Americans to adapt to life in America.

    There was also the Road Fight of the 1960s, largely attributed to Fells Point but equally a part of Canton history.

    We literally would have been under the stilts, said Hudson.

    He notes that several members of the Messiah congregation were actually displaced from their homes as plans to build an interstate highway through the area nearly came to fruition. The newer homes of the development known as Canton Square were later built on land that became vacant when older homes were condemned and razed to make way for the highway.

    Hudson says that while relatively recent developers and entrepreneurs get credit for revitalizing Canton, starting in the 1990s, there would be nobody to give credit to if the people hadnt saved this neighborhood [in the Road Fight].

    Thats the story we keep preaching; weve made it part of our brand, he added.

    In addition to early English educations and the Road Fight, the church has remained intimately involved in the Canton community over the years. In 1991, after reaching a consensus with the neighborhood, Messiah English Lutheran Church sold its Messiah Hall, an educational building constructed in 1925, to build housing for local senior citizens, writes Schiszick in the CHAP report.

    Most recently, the church has sought help from the Neighborhood Design Center, a group of architects who perform community work pro bono, to make the building more of a participant in the booming bar scene of ODonnell Square.

    At a service marking the landmark designation last Sunday, Hudson pointed out that some members of the Messiah congregation have lived through many chapters of Canton history.

    Helen Warehime, 92, remembers when her mother, who lived at 614 S. Streeper St., used to put her infant sister in a basket and take her to work. Warehimes mother, who worked in the canning industry, was paid 5 cents for each basket filled with peeled tomatoes or cut green beans.

    Thats a long way from todays aspiring professionals [of Canton], said Hudson, some of them living in the same buildings, but with a new word attachedluxury. But it is all part of the same story.

    association for this particular area that I am aware of. Thats why we are spearheading the effort to oppose the license.

    Said Parast, who owns NY Chicken and Grill, says he applied for the license when he found out he was in violation of the new requirement.

    These rules came out with no notice, he said.

    The new license rule went into effect in February, according to staff at the citys Bureau of Revenue Collections. It is unclear whether businesses were notified of the new requirement.

    Parast says he has been in business at this location since 2010 and has been open from 10:30 a.m. until 3 a.m. for a long time.

    I want to be open late for a couple of reasons, he said. One is the safety of the store. If Im closed, I worry about break-ins. Two is because I do more business after midnight on the weekends. Three, I have eight security cameras recording 24-7. Its a rough neighborhood with drug activity. If I close down, the neighborhood gets more dangerous, he said.

    Kevin Bernhard, president of the Highlandtown Community Association,

    Neighborhoods turn eyes to late night businesses

    Does Highlandtown need a restaurant open late at night at Baltimore St. and High-land Ave.?

    City Councilman James Kraft and neighbors who live near the corner dont think so.

    NY Chicken & Grill, a take-out at 3344 E. Baltimore St., has applied for a late-night operator license, which would allow it to stay open until as late as 5 a.m., if Krafts office and residents werent fighting the application.

    My office has received complaints about late-night operations and is currently gathering signatures from concerned residents in the Highlandtown neighborhood, specifically those in the 26-010 voting precinct, said Kraft, who believes businesses open that late can attract loiterersand potentially create an atmosphere that attracts criminals.

    According Shannon Wrenn, Krafts aide, neighbors dont feel safe on the corner in the evening.

    Weve received complaints about the unsafe nature of the corner and about people being afraid to get on and off the bus, she said. There is no active community

    acknowledges that the Highland Ave.Baltimore St. corner is problematic.

    This corner has been a trouble area for as long as I have lived herealmost eight yearsand I only live one block away, he said in an email. The major problem is that there is a lot of loitering taking place on those corners in front of thebusinesses. I cannot point my finger at any one establishment and saythey are responsible for allowing people to loiter, but I am waiting for police reports and findings from the Baltimore Police Department and Councilman Krafts office to better tell what is going on.

    At a recent Southeast District Community Relations Council meeting where the take-outs license application was briefly discussed, Major William Davis said that that corner of Highland Ave. and Baltimore St. is a place where police see a lot of VROs, or violent repeat offenders.

    Baltimore and Highland. This is my eighth year in the district. Ever since I got here, weve been talking about Baltimore and Highland, Davis said.

    Lieutenant William Colburn, who also attended that meeting, added that, with NY Chicken & Grill closed after midnight, that

    To the Editor:With regards to your Nov. 6 article, Canton Car Wash exposes auto-body scammers, I am

    furious that nefarious individuals are taking advantage of good people and casting a bad shadow on the S.M.A.R.T repair mobile tech industry.

    S.M.A.R.T repair stands for Small Area Repair Technology and is a skill that is employed by body shops and many mobile repair practitioners across the United States. The idea is to repair the damage, typically on bumpers, doors, and fenders, and repair just the damaged area without having to repaint the entire panel. Pretty much every auto dealerships have technicians perform these repairs on their used car inventory that have arrived from auction.

    It is a legitimate business; however, just like any other business, there are some unscrupulous characters out there looking for a quick buck.

    I owned a franchise performing this type of work for over 5 years. Most of my work was performed at auto dealerships, but I did some occasional retail work for the general public.

    There are several franchised businesses operations in Maryland such as M.A.R.S (Mobile Appearance Reconditioning Service), Colors on Parade, and True Colors. People wanting to save money on repairs or wanting minor damage fixed without going through their insurance company should look into one of these operations versus open solicitation in a parking lot.

    These franchised operations train and certify the franchisees. The franchisees are also insured, which is a requirement to perform work at many of the auto dealerships.

    corner is a ghost town.The late-night operator license applies to all

    businesses located in certain zoning districts operating between 12 and 5 a.m., except for hotels, bars or restaurants operating during hours according to their licensed alcoholic beverage license.

    Certain types of businesses, such as those that sell gasoline or provide emergency medical care, are exempt from the licensing requirement.

    The license costs $460 per year.There are 67 late-night operators in the city,

    according to Frank C. Derr, deputy chief of the citys Bureau of Revenue Collections.

    An application for a late-night operator license can be denied for various reasons, among them, written opposition from more than nine residents of the voting precinct where the business is located.

    According to Wrenn, the late-night operator license was created because elected officials realized there was no oversight of businesses that kept late hours in predominantly residential neighborhoods. (Bars and taverns are overseen by the Liquor Board and are generally required to close by 2 a.m.)

    The law stipulates that in order for a business to obtain a late-night operators license, it is required to post its intention for 15 days and notify its City Council representative.

    Additionally the business must have adequate indoor and outdoor security plans

    and be willing to accept conditions on the license to ensure the health, welfare, and safety of the community.

    When an application for a late-night operator license is denied, the applicant may appeal within 30 days to the Board of Municipal and Zoning Appeals for a public hearing.

    Derr said in an email that 17 license denials have not been appealed, while another three denied applications are currently pending appeal.

    He added that while the city has not mapped the locations of all late-night operator licenses, they are concentrated in the following ZIP codes: 21218 (9 licenses), which includes the Greenmount Ave./Waverly area from North Ave. to Penn Lucy, including Johns Hopkins University; 21201 (eight licenses), which includes the mid-town southwest Baltimore area; and 21212 (seven licenses), which is primarily the Mid-Govans area in northern Baltimore.

    Parast says he doesnt understand why there is opposition to his staying open until 3 a.m.

    If I close early, the neighborhood gets more dangerous, he said. Theres no one to call the cops.

    Only one other business in Krafts district is currently seeking a late-night operators license, according to Wrenn. Theres a 7-11 in Fells Point, but there are no issues she said. NY Chicken & Grill is the first one weve gotten complaints about.

    Be part of living history!Aisquiths Sharp Shooters (Explorer Post 438) is holding a recruitment night on Nov. 21, 7

    p.m., in the basement of St. Ritas School on Dunglow Rd, between Mornington Rd. and Dunmanway in Dundalk.

    Young men and woman, 14-21, as well as older adults, are invited to join. In addition to reenacting battles as an 1814 rifle company, Aisquiths Sharp Shooters demonstrate period crafts and skills. Examples of these activities will be presented on recruitment night.

    Now is the time to put together a uniform or a dress to be part of our Bicentennial celebrations at Ft. Howard, Ft. McHenry, St. Leonards Creek, Bladensburg, Ft. Erie Canada, and New Orleans.

    Questions? Contact Lt. Nebel at [email protected]

    Dundalk may well be the military reenact-ment capital of Maryland, and a major force in keeping the history of the War of 1812 alive, but those are relatively recent developments.

    The re-enacting started in 1976, when Buzz Chriest, a founding member of Aisquiths Sharp Shooters, was helping a newly-formed local troop of boy scouts gain recognition for forming a national historic trail.

    That trail would visit important sites from the Battle of North Point and surrounding eventsthe death of British General Robert Ross, for example.

    Chriest says that back then, both the sites and events from the war were not as well known.

    Although we talk a lot about it today, 25-30-35 years ago people had heard about some of it, but it wasnt as established then, says Chriest. We took the kids down to look at all of the sites, and found out where they were.

    The Dundalk scouts 1812 sleuthing got them noticed by Canadian scouts.

    Lo and behold, we were invited by the scouts up in Canada to participate in a reen-actment of Fort York, says Chriest. The kids got poly uniforms and wooden guns, and went up and had a real good time up in Canada.

    American forces burned York in 1813, an action that may have egged the British into burning the White House the following year. Participating in the reenactment of York had reciprocal consequences for the Dundalk scouts, too.

    The Canadians told us, You know youre obliged now to have us down there and play, says Chriest, explaining how reenactments came to take place in Dundalk.

    The first one was in 1970-something, he says, and had 20 or 30 participants.

    Every television station in the area was there, adds Chriest. At that time, there were four.

    The publicity generated by the event was noticed by the local chamber of commerce

    and other important people in Dundalk, he says, and the reenactment became an annual occurrence.

    Chriest believes that the town could lever-age its heritage even more.

    Were sitting on a goldmine down here, he says. Theres this great battlefield, and sites that have never been taken advantage of. If we could get one tenth of the people that go to Fort McHenry, that would be 100,000 tour-ists coming to Dundalk and spending money.

    Chriest says events like Septembers reen-actments at Fort Howard Park highlight inter-esting similarities between groups like Aisquiths Sharp Shooters and the actual mili-tias of 200 years ago. Militias were made up of farmers and other regular people and were not the well-oiled machine of the regular army.

    Theres many a time Ive looked at it and thought that it must have been the same with those guys 200 years ago, he says. Oh, I forgot this, or I couldnt find that.

    If youre on the list at Highlandtowns Venice Tavern, that doesnt mean a bouncer will unclip the velvet rope to let you through.

    For one thing, theres no velvet ropeand the tavern has a different kind of list.

    We have probably the largest list in the city of Baltimore of people who cant come in here, says Frank DeSantis Jr., 80.

    Its a side effect of being 83 years in a city and a neighborhood that has seen its ups, downs and middles. Franks parents Frank Sr. and Mary Victoria bought the Schluderberg mansionSchluderberg is the Ess in Esskay Meatsin about 1925. They had previously owned a bar on Haven St., and Frank Jr. isnt entirely sure what they did between the onset of Prohibition in 1920 and the opening of the Venice Tavern in 1933.

    They probably bootlegged a little bit, he speculates.

    At any rate, they established the watering hole in the basement of the Schluderberg mansion at 339 S. Conkling St. after Prohibition. It hasnt changed much in 80 years.

    Its a nice little place, says Frank, the last remaining of seven siblings.

    He was born in the mansion in 1933, above what was then the brand new bar.

    The Venice Tavern is not quite at street level, but halfway below. Follow a very plainly-lettered sign down a set of concrete steps to get to the entrance, pull open the old wooden door, and enter a rectangular barroom with enough room for one pool table. Theres not a lot to look at. Opposite the bar, four counter-top video games and a jukebox line the wall.

    The jukebox and stereo system, apparently made when they made them like they used to, is spectacular. It sounds like Ray Charles is actually in the room. No modern car sound system carries the warmth of music like the old machine inside the Venice Tavern.

    As your eyes adjust to the dark, you notice the old black-and-white boxing photos behind the bar.

    Vince was the boxer, says Frank, noting that his older brother, who ran the bar with him until his death, was inducted in the Maryland Boxing Hall of Fame in the mid-1970s.

    A framed fight poster advertises a Jan. 20, 1931, bout between Vince DeSantis and Pete DeAngelis.

    Boxing was a big thing in East Baltimore, says Frank. They fought for pride; they didnt get big money.

    The DeSantis-DeAngelis card was billed as a fight to settle the supremacy of Highlandtown.

    All in the family for 80 years: Venice Tavern gets a refresher

    By ERIK ZyGMONT [email protected]

    Big deal, huh? laughs Frank, noting that there were no hard feelings, and DeAngelis later became a well-liked home improvement contractor in the area.

    The boxing photosand the Venice Taverns quiet authenticityhave attracted a renewed interest in the establishment. Recently, the bar has participated in neighborhood events such as Discover Creative Conkling Street and the Open Studio Tour.

    Just a few years ago, the Venice Taverns owners were fending off a neighborhood push for the bars closure. Frank Jr.s grandson, Dominic DeSantis, 33, found himself in front of the Liquor Board, defending his familys right to do business.

    It made us feel like we werent part of the neighborhood, and we didnt care about the neighborhood, but we did, says Dominic, who grew up at 317 S. Conkling St. and attended Canton Middle Schoolnow Friendship Academyat Highland and Fait avenues.

    After the Liquor Board hearing, Dominic, who now helps his grandfather manage the bar, installed 16 security cameras.

    I can see every square inch of our property, outside and inside, he says.

    As a result, a lot of the unsavory activity that had occurred outside the bar simply migrated to a different corner of the same intersection.

    Before, I felt that the neighborhood thought that [the bad stuff] was our fault, but we would be fighting with those people every day, says Dominic.

    The fight never really ends, he adds. Keeping the corner of Conkling and Gough reasonably hospitable is an ongoing task, like reinforcing training in a willful dog. It helps that a few new establishments have brought new people and clientele to the immediate neighborhood. Above the Venice Tavern, urban farmers Brett Sippel and Sabrina Mincey have opened RoofTop HOT, a food market specializing in local and organic goods. Frank is happy to have them there.

    Theyre a hardworking young couple, he says. Theyve fixed up that place real nice.

    In the meantime, Dominic, who also owns Cantons Hudson Street Stackhouse, has been sprucing up the tavern a bit, especially with regard to one crucial thing: beer. Up until recently, the tavern had just two choices, Budweiser and Coors.

    We were what is known as a shot-and-beer bar, says Frank.

    Dominic has brought in craft brews, such as Souther Tier Pumking, Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA, and Hampden on Rye, by Union Craft Brewing. The price for a pint in the humble environs of the Venice Tavern is substantially lower than at trendier spots, and a

    dollar gets 6 ounces more. For wine drinkers, there is now more than

    Sutter Home and Lambrusco. Dominic has brought in the same pinot noir, cabernet, pinot grigio, and chardonnay he serves at the Stackhouse.

    Theyre all value wines, but theyre great wines, he says.

    Dominic has a few renovations planned for the Venice Tavern, but he wont go too crazy.

    If you go there, you know youre not getting any frills or pretentious BS, he says. Whether you like it or not, its the real deal, and we want to keep it that way.

    Canoe: Moms identify with birds travels

    The Latino ladies took to the birds in previous programs, Creamer added.

    A lot of them recognize the birds, she said. At first, they didnt make the connection that some of these birds are the same as from their home lands.

    Not only do the birds winter in the womens homelands, but they are also fellow travelers.

    Theres a connection here between the people who have come here with these birds that travel in the same pathways, said Creamer.

    The canoe-painting and planting was funded by the Toyota TogetherGreen program, in which the auto manufacturer gives a substantial sum of grant money to the Audubon Society.

    Before she applied for the grant, Creamer

    said that she saw an opportunity with her Mis Raices friends.

    I pulled them aside and said, Now dont get excitedthere may be some grant moneybut what would you like to do if you hung out with Audubon more?, she said.

    She said the canoe projectthough it was a bit cold on painting dayhas been fun for all involved.

    Were having a great time so far, she said.

    Creamer sees the canoe-painting and planting as a pilot project. If it goes well, shed like to repeat it.

    Ive got a list of other schools and libraries that could have canoes, she said.

    To the Editor:The State Highway Administration has proposed some drastic changes to the topography of

    Pulaski Highway, specifically between Chesaco Ave. and Todds Lane. Their data shows this is a particularly deadly area for pedestrians and drivers alike. Several of the accidents that occurred very late at night and involved speeding cars and motorcycles and pedestrian error. It appears that four or five were the result of vehicular accidents with drivers that were killed by their own faults or, in one case, being t-boned and pushed into a tree, which resulted in a horrible death for a local family. This was truly a very tragic event for the family and friends of this individual. Now what the SHA is proposing is to install a traffic signal at Batavia Farm Rd. and to close the crossing at Lawrence and Lorraine avenues to eliminate highway crossing there. According to the SHA, the intersection of Batavia Farm Rd. and Pulaski Hwy. has a tremendous amount of truck traffic, specifically dump trucks. Putting a traffic light at this intersection would probably slow the traffic to some degree, but would also create a U-turn hazard from the cars that could not cut across Lorraine/Lawrence avenues.

    Now to the meat of the story.The SHA also want so put curbs, gutters and sidewalks from Chesaco Ave. to Todds Lane.

    The purpose of the curbs and gutters is to eliminate the flooding that was occurring between Batavia Farm Rd. and Todds Lane. According to a local businessman who has owned the property for over 50 years, it has never flooded between those two intersections. It also has never flooded at Chesaco Ave. and Pulaski Hwy., but further west at Rosedale Ave. and Pulaski Hwy. It has flooded up to 5 and 6 feet when major storms hitso much for the new gutters and storm drains!

    Now lets get to the sidewalk issue. SHA has determined that a 5-foot-wide sidewalk is need in this industrial/commercial area for pedestrian traffic. The sidewalk must be 5-feet wide and ADA compliant. How many wheelchairs has anyone seen on Pulaski Hwy. near these

    Our Opinion and YoursPulaski Highway work costly, unneeded

    Our Opinion and Yours

    intersections? This sidewalk, along with a 2-foot-wide grass area between the sidewalk and the individual driveway, would run on both sides of the highway form Chesaco Ave. to Todds Lane and start and stop abruptly.

    Thus, the sidewalk to nowhere!The SHA has claimed that this new look would slow down traffic with a calming effect.

    Were not sure what this means. At an Oct. 7 meeting with SHA engineers and area businesses, it was discussed that a

    sidewalk is a waste of millions of dollars of taxpayer money. The light would probably benefit drivers, but to put a crosswalk in and determine that the occupants of the motels/hotels on Pulaski Hwy. would make use of it is nonsense. The transients that come to this area hop the jersey wall to cross the street. You dont think that they are going to walk up several hundred feet to a crosswalk, wait for the light, cross, and then walk back toward the other direction, do you? Not going to happen!

    The SHAs theory is that the residents and taxpayers of Rosedale will benefit from this sidewalk. When I look at the people walking on the highway, sometimes as few as four or five people per day, I am not sure I recognize them as residents of the area. I agree that they are occupants (temporary) of the hotels on the highway. The SHA wants to spend millions of dollars to put in sidewalks that are not needed and will be used only occasionally by transients, not homeowners or residents of the area. What a waste of our tax dollars.

    The next point to bring up is that the engineers designed the driveways for these businesses in this industrial/commercial area without thinking about the tractor trailers that have to enter and exit these businesses. No considerations were given to the fact that businesses receive deliveries. An engineer said she used a template to make each and every driveway the same. Some of these businesses need large access/egress areas. Again, why do we need new sidewalks, curbs and gutters along an industrial/commercial 2-and-1/2 blocks that start and stop with people still having to use the shoulder to transition to the next area? It doesnt make economic sense to me, using our tax dollars to put a sidewalk in for the hookers, drug dealers, etc. to walk up and down the highway.

    Lastly, the SHA has all but said that this is a done deal! We need the residents of Rosedale to voice their opinions on the use of tax dollars for sidewalks to nowhere, un-needed curbs and gutters in a stretch of road that has never flooded, and a crosswalk that will be used by a half dozen or fewer people, except on weekends, when likely nobody will use it at all. I have personally watched the highway on several occasions and saw no one walking on the shoulder or anywhere else.

    On a normal day, late in the afternoon, the eastbound traffic is bumper-to-bumper from Rossville Blvd. to about 68th St. Putting in a traffic light may create a major road block each and every day, not including when an I-95 accident slows city traffic, and drivers exit at the city line to travel east and north to Harford County. Even if the lights are in sync, when it changes out of sequence due to turning traffic, can you imagine how far the traffic will back up?

    Baltimore CIty City Hall will be wondering why all the traffic is creeping along, not knowing that the intersection at Batavia Farm Rd. and Pulaski Hwy. is the culprit.

    Westbound traffic in the morning will have the same problems, and may back up past Martin Blvd.

    This is the opinion of the business owners on the Pulaski Hwy. who oppose the use use of their state tax dollars for something unnecessary.
