TCNA President's Message
Pat Hawthorne

Dear Neighbors,
I will be stepping down as President of the TCNA in June after having served in that capacity for the past two years. It has truly been an honor and a pleasure to be a part of such a wonderful, vibrant and creative community. I want to thank all the folks who served as board members during my tenure and to thank those who volunteered their time and expertise to help make our neighborhood the best place to live in Baltimore.
I am pleased that our neighbor, Amy MacDonald (Ridgemede Road), has agreed to serve as President beginning June 21st. Amy is eminently qualified for the job and will be a fine leader of the TCNA.
Please welcome Amy as she takes the reins and offer her assistance in any way you can.
Thank you.
Pat Hawthorne
President, TCNA

Summer Safety Suggestions and Tips
| |
-
Keep outdoor lights on outside your condos and on your porches throughout the night even if you are not home. This discourages crime from happening.
-
Check your car doors to make sure they are locked (even if you park in a condo or apartment building garage). Don't leave any valuables visible in your car.
-
If you are going away even for a few days, tell a neighbor who can keep an eye and ear out for anything unusual and check for mail daily and, or newspapers even if you had them on hold.
-
If you see something suspicious happening, call 911 AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

TCNA Streets Committee Report, May 2025
Brandon Eilertson, Committee Chair
| | |
The Streets Committee remains deeply involved with two major projects: Traffic management on Tuscany Road and the creation of a pedestrian path along Linkwood Road between the pedestrian bridges.
The Streets Committee remains deeply involved with two major projects: Traffic Management on Tuscany Road and the creation of a pedestrian path along Linkwood Road between the pedestrian bridges.
For Tuscany Road, we had a productive site visit by the DOT liaison, a traffic engineer and Odette Ramos' director of constituent services. This visit is preparatory to a traffic study which will be done in the fall. Any data from the study will inform possible interventions. These may include flex posts and painted markings around the Tuscany Rd - Canterbury Rd intersection to improve visibility. Also, we are considering a crosswalk flanked by a speed bump in either direction approaching the Canterbury Rd & Highfield Rd intersection near the RPEMS bus stop The TCNA board has discussed how to address conflict between neighborhood residents and Calvert parents during school hours. We prefer a collaborative approach led by the TCNA Calvert Liaison committee as the venue of discussion. This may include asking Calvert for a crossing guard or traffic management officer at the Tuscany & Canterbury intersection during drop-off and pick-up. We are also considering creation of a committee that includes Calvert School representatives, Calvert parents and neighborhood residents to discuss ways to reduce conflict and improve sharing of limited roadway space.
For Linkwood Road, work on the trail is led by the Friends of Stony Run. At present, we are working with Friends of Stony Run and the city Department of Transportation to establish what steps are needed to begin construction. Friends of Stony Run is working with the planners from the Lower Stony Run strategic plan to create a plan that is robust enough to present to city DOT for approval.
We are engaged in other smaller projects as well. We would like to work with the city to optimize flexpost placement on University Parkway and if anyone is interested in this work, they should reach out by email. We are also looking for anyone willing to join the committee with an interest in improving the crossing at Charles Street and Highfield Road.

Board Member of Friends of Stony Run: Eric Elton
| | | | TCNA has adopted public spaces and created four neighborhood gardens. With the help of TCNA volunteers and contracted services, routine weeding and mulching of the four neighborhood gardens was done in the spring.

Tuscany-Canterbury
Tree Stewards
GOAL: Keep Tuscany-Canterbury Green and Tree-healthy
| | | | Baltimore's goal is to reach a 40% tree canopy by 2037. We’ve already achieved that in Tuscany-Canterbury - 40.6%. We can still do better and plant and save more trees. | | | |
Which City Has the Most Trees
Washington Post. April 25, 2025
Interactive maps in article
Planting more trees in a crowded city, however, can pose a challenge. Making room for nature means there’s less space for housing and transportation.
“Density has a lot of benefits,” said Rob McDonald, lead scientist at the Nature Conservancy, an advocacy group. “It makes our cities generally lower-carbon as we use less energy, especially for transportation.”
On the other side of that equation are the health benefits urban trees offer — or the risks of not having them. On a hot summer day, afternoon temperatures in treeless neighborhoods tend to be 8 to 11 degrees higher than in the greenest parts of the same city, said Vivek Shandas, professor of urban sustainability at Portland State University.
Unshaded buildings and roads also keep releasing heat long after the sun has gone down. Researchers say that heat waves damage our bodies much more if they’re not broken up by cool nights.

Possible New Covenant twith Calvert School
| | |
4220 North Charles Street is for sale.
Calvert School may be interested in purchasing the house for office space.
At the May 2025 TCNA board meeting, the purchase was discussed. If Calvert wants to purchase the property, the TCNA board is recommending that we allow the purchase of the house with the following conditions:
- Maintain the facade
- Use the facility for office purposes only
- Not to be used for additional parking spaces
The final vote of TCNA will be held at the annual meeting on June 21 at 3:00 at Calvert Middle School. The TCNA 2001 Convenant with Calvert School requires the association to approve any property Calvert School buys in Tuscany-Canterbury.
| | 4220 North Charles Street is adjacent to the entrance of the middle school. | | | |
Calvert Liaison Committee Report, May 2025
Landscaping and carpooling were discussed. Calvert's Headmaster said they would continue to stagger drop off and pick up times to ease trafficDead trees on the embankment in the 200-300 blocks of Tuscany Road will be replaced in the fall,
| | |
Calvert School: Summer
There will be several camps and other activities sponsored by Calvert School during the summer. The camps will use the middle school area and children will be dropped off using the Charles Street entrance.
| | |
Possible Covenant with Calvert School
The existing 2001 covenant will expire in June 2026. A covenant workgroup that includes representatives from the Tuscany-Lombardy, Gardens of Guilford, Ridgemede/Ridgewood, and TCNA has been working with Calvert School on a new covenant. More information will be shared throughout the next year. Both TCNA and Calvert would like a mutually beneficial covenant to be developed.

Tuscan Hills Apartments: Issues
There have been numerous problems since the apartments were purchased by Chasen in 2022. Now the problems have increased. The major issues of trash, unwanted furniture, and cars without tags still exist after the housing inspector visited the site on March 26, 2025. There are still reports of loud noise and music from cars on the parking lot late in the evenings. Also there are reports of possible drug dealings on the parking lot.
Councilwoman Odette Ramos continues to work with City agencies to resolve the problems. June 3, 2025, the City superintendent of code enforcement inspections in the northern district replied that these problems will be investigated. Asst. Supt. Hinton who oversees this area has assigned an inspector to investigate the problems.

- During exam periods the 24 hour no noise rule will be enforced.
