Baltimore Saltbox
The Baltimore Saltbox documents the iconic saltbox. As seen in The New Yorker.
Our humble yellow icons got a few seconds (and called Charming!) on Rachel Maddow last night as name origin backstory for Project Salt Box piece, who are doing amazing work tracking the mushrooming of ICE facilities across the country. And they shared this video with us to post!
And a shout out to Diana Bevensee (@dibev20) whose amazing Hon Box is featured and still standing proud in Medfield today.

If you happen by your local Baltimore Saltbox, take a peak inside the lids, kids. Stay safe out there!

Update: About the whistles. We went back and forth on doing this because of all of things folks are rightfully commenting on here. Thank you for that. Whistles are a tool, and like all tools, folks should be aware of how and when to use them. If you’ve happened upon one of the dozen or so whistles out there in the wild right now, be mindful.
@baltimorerapidresponsenetwork is good source of info and training.
We are all on the same side and everyone who has swung into the account has been nothing but cool and respectful. Thank you for that and thank you for embracing our salty yellow Baltimore icon.

Use the Baltimore City DOT Saltbox map (link in Bio) to find your local box and stock up on salt before weather starts and follow @bmorecitydot for updates and yuks.
And if you can free a hand from your mittens, post some pics of your local box in action!
Shovel and salt wisely, friends!
