Just Capital (in which we discuss the capital of Baltimore NOT D.C.)






















As per my earlier post, while we discuss the field trip I took to the capital over the weekend, we will leave out the bits about the actual capital (which is really fine-looking in fine weather, but full of lamesaucy people traffic and car traffic), instead focusing on Baltimore, my winter palace.

Baltimore's Mount Vernon is an utter dream! I hate to be the New Yorker who travels through the world eyes trained on real estate alone, but these townhouses are inescapably lovely with details rarely seen down our way.
