Above is another late 80;s photo from the Inner Harbor in Baltimore, and for the life of me, I don't remember why I took this particular photo. It shows a piece of sculpture and the water. Some cranes in the distance showed something was going on here, and that's one of the reasons I enjoyed visiting. It was always different-- new construction, new boats traveling in and out, new attractions.
A bizarre aside: The building to the right is the World Trade Center. 23 stores, observatory at the top, great views if the weather is clear. I took this on one of those famous 3000 per cent relative humidity Baltimore \soupy summer mornings. As noted earlier, I was in Baltimore on 9/11/01. I was listening to the radio, and I heard those initial reports of a small plane hitting the World Trade Center. Because I was in Baltimore, I immediately thought of this building. You know how it turned out. Like most Americans, I couldn't wrap my head around the horror that was unfolding.
