What is the BHCA? And why did we change the name?

Join us after Church as we are joined by Linda Rittleman, President of the Bolton Hill Community Association (formerly the Mount Royal Improvement Association) who will tell us a little bit about what prompted the name change of the Bolton Hill Community Association and what their vision is for the future here in Bolton Hill and in broader West Baltimore. As you may be aware, the original MRIA was founded out of Memorial and has quite a colorful history with the Church and the neighborhood.

So come and hear Linda talk about the mystery of lots 18 and 19, the evocative prose of Mary Paulding Martin, the battles over Urban Renewal, corner stores, and the surprising role State Center has played in our Church and neighborhood’s history.
