Councilman James Torrence

From Station North to Parkway to Mondawmin, it was a full evening of connecting with neighbors across our district.

In Station North, I stopped by a powerful arts installation highlighting how creativity brings people together and strengthens our communities.

In the Parkway Community, we discussed parking concerns and neighborhood forestry needs, important conversations about maintaining livable, green blocks.

I then joined a joint Public Safety Meeting with the Mondawmin Neighborhood Improvement Association and the New Auchentoroly Terrace Association to collaborate on solutions that improve safety and quality of life.

Grateful for every opportunity to listen, problem-solve and be a resource for our neighborhoods.

Joined the No Boundaries Coalition for the challenge, taking the same bus route many young people use to reach Druid Hill Park for summer engagement and recreation. A 1-mile walk after the bus was a reminder that real access to recreation and opportunity means more than just proximity.
