Greetings!
This past spring Baltimore City initiated a survey of 15 City-owned historic landmarks, including the Phoenix Shot Tower. As the leader of the Tower's preservation and revitalization, Carroll Museums welcomed this opportunity to share ideas for the Tower's future and to strengthen our public-private partnership with the City.
Meanwhile, we have continue our efforts on The Phoenix Challenge. Over $23,000 has been secured to-date and the City Department of General Services has generously pledged support for electrical and structural repairs.
As one donor put it, "Seeing the Shot Tower, we knew we were home in Baltimore."
Let's ensure the Tower is there to welcome us all home. Please consider becoming a Challenge member or a volunteer today.
Thank you,
Paula Hankins
Executive Director
