There are many deaths on W. Lombard, a street located in West Baltimore. There was one death that nearly led to my own.
Dying on West Lombard follows my well-intended plan to give up life in suburbia and serve a troubled community as a neighbor. I received more than I bargained for with my purchase. Disillusionment followed as I navigated relationships with the corner boys, law enforcement, city services, and community members struggling with addictions and demons.
Inside is a story of hope, sorrow, and, yes, death. Whether in the city, surrounding counties, or states away, we are forced to look at our role in this frequently misunderstood city of charm.
