    Finishing up #CharlieDuff #TheNorthAtlanticCities

    “The freedom to move around - on foot, or on a bike, without the protective armor of a car - is the essence of a great #city. It is why a great city is as potent an image of freedom as a redwood forest or a sailboat.”

    “The #rowhouse was the sign that a place was a #city, or aspired to become one, in the long 18th century. It was what the skyscraper became in the 20th century.”

    I'm quite enjoying #CharlieDuff's book #TheNorthAtlanticCities and suddenly realizing he is a neighbor in #Baltimore

    He also helps run #JubileeBaltimore jubileebaltimore.org

    #Duff makes a compelling case that the #rowhome aesthetic I love was perfected in the Netherlands in the 1600s--noting how contemporary these two paintings look
