I sat upon my rooftop deck, peering out upon the many fascinating buildings of Baltimore City. As I leisurely sipped my glass of Merlot, I noticed.... ha, if only I were that suave! Have you ever actually looked at the architecture and design of the buildings you choose to go to within the city? If not, then maybe you should.. then give Gant Burnett Architects a standing ovation. GBA is a very small architecture firm located at the intersection of N. Charles and Mulberry St. in downtown Baltimore and of course, you can't miss the building because it has the only purple door.
My thoughts are that maybe GB Architects hasn't received any astounding reviews on Yelp (as of yet) due to the fact that not many people pay attention to the beauty that Baltimore may actually possess - however this is just a theory. Have you ever seen the rather large John Hopkins University Campus? Well then you've seen GBA's work. I would say that more than half of the campus is GBA projects. How about the Bateman's in Towson or the Hippodrome Cafe? Ever been to these establishments? Probably won't be a surprise to you that GBA has also designed these places. I think giving credit, where credit is due is indeed pertinent - so Gant Burnett deserved a review from an outsiders perspective.
Essentially, this review is merely to invite all of you "Marylander's" to stop and take a longer look at the beautiful city before you because you may just find an appreciation for something that you've never noticed about good ol' "Charm City". read more
