Feeding Our Homeless Veterans

Dominick Dunnigan — Fri, 26 Feb 2021 18:05:20 +0000

For the month of February, Health Care for the Homeless (HCH) had the fabulous idea to engage local businesses to provide much needed meals to local homeless shelters. With the restaurant industry having been decimated by the pandemic, HCH saw an opportunity to help local restaurants by having other community businesses engage with a restaurant to provide a meal for a local shelter. As a proud supporter of HCH, Southway happily participated in the effort by partnering with their Locust Point neighbor, Baba’s Mediterranean Kitchen, to feed the homeless veterans and staff at another South Baltimore neighbor, The Baltimore Station. Baba’s prepared 75 delicious chicken piccata platters with salad, humus, and pita bread for The Station’s residents. While we are grateful to support our local South Baltimore community, we are most grateful for the selfless service of our veterans.

Thanks to HCH for the great idea, thanks to the staff at Baba’s for providing the delicious and healthy meals, and thanks to the staff of the Baltimore Station for helping us make it happen.

We are excited and proud to be a part of the team revitalizing Lexington Market, one of the most authentic Baltimore landmarks in the city. Jacques Kelly, friend of Southway, ally to historic buildings, and columnist for the Baltimore Sun, wrote a great article about the history of Lexington Market and the latest work now underway.

The demolition covered in this article is just to the 1980’s version of the Lexington Market. There have been many versions of Lexington Market throughout the years, and we are so proud to be a part of it’s history.

Jacques Kelly of the Baltimore Sun writes about the history of Lyon Homes in Turner Station and the current upgrades taking place to preserve this important workforce housing community. The story of Henrietta Lacks and the help she gave to the medical community is unmatched and gives a deep history to this renovated area.

Lyon Homes have come a long way from 1942 to the renovations still underway in 2018. For such a strong community to give affordable housing to those in need in the area for over 70 years is remarkable, and Henrietta Lacks would be proud to call this place home all these years later.
