"Fix it".... The owner told me.
Charles St. was one of those jobs you do, not expending much. Over the years I was told nightmare stories about working in Baltimore. Someone even said before I started the job "to watch my back" ...?? If I’m asked to do a job, I have every reason to be worried... Owners tend to call the buildings there technically death traps. But after doing this for so long, I’m shocked if a "building" is still standing by the time we start work. We pride ourselves on doing the impossible, with an impossible deadline.
March 2011= condemned building
August 2011= 30 apartments C.O.ed.....
Maybe I’m crazy, but Baltimore is now like I’m home away from home. Construction is a crazy business and I believe it’s all what you make of it. I’m blessed to not only be able to build great buildings, but also great friendships. I’m very thankful for our clients (who somehow become our friends). For every opportunity and challenge they give us.
