One of the best Baltimore threads I've ever seen. Thanks for all the great photos... this brought back memories of when I was there.

Centropolis · #3 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 5:41 PM**

Hehheh. Looks like you came across a few local characters, very nice.

Expat · #4 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 5:49 PM**

Excellent job of capturing Bawlmer, hon.

ThisSideofSteinway · #5 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 5:46 PM**

Oh, shii... Kingofthehill comin'!

Very nice, inday-eed.

Lipani · #6 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 5:57 PM**

Your threads always impress (and make me hungry), KOTH.

Thundertubs · #7 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 6:34 PM**

Solid stuff. Fred is making sure this thread is in order.

Re: North Ave: I may be wrong, but I believe the riot was centered there. That'll mess a street up for a good while.

"Oh, indeed"

arkitekte · #9 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 6:54 PM**

gtbassett · #10 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 6:59 PM**

Goddamn I always love me a good B-more thread.

LAsam · #11 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 7:01 PM**

Your contributions to this website's photo section can't be overstated. Very nice work and LA misses your talents! Also, thanks for using Tame Impala for the music selection. Very good band.

One thing I have to say - you will show the real face of a place. Nicely done, Mr. Wells.

DetroitSky · #13 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 9:50 PM**

Great shots, love the grit

sabotai · #14 Posted **Oct 8, 2011, 10:39 PM**

Kilgore Trout · #17 Posted **Oct 9, 2011, 12:48 PM**

love the first shot. public transit photos are always hard but you managed to get a good one. oh and number 36 too.

KB0679 · #18 Posted **Oct 9, 2011, 2:42 PM**

See, I knew Baltimore was Southern, lol.

But seriously, awesome photo thread. Has gentrification hit the city yet?

wisla_krakow · #19 Posted **Oct 10, 2011, 6:23 AM**

didnt want this to end.
surprising how realistic the portrayal of the city was in the show.

If by realistic you mean 90% dilapidated neighborhoods, i would have to disagree with you. If by "the city" you mean the economically depressed neighborhoods located in central east and west Baltimore, then surly it is very well portrayed. However, I feel this phenomenal thread gives a more realistic view of central Baltimore city than does the wire, because this

was not shown in the wire.
