Posting this criminally late. The Baltimorons is a soon-to-be holiday classic co-written by and starring Baltimore’s own Michael Strassner (@strasshola) and filmed around Hampden.

When you’re using your friendly neighborhood saltbox, you’ll sometimes find some salting guidance nearby featuring Salt Bae telling you to sprinkle the NaCl judiciously. Why would a sticker lie to a person? Take it easy on the salt and be careful out there!
Use the 311 app to report your Saltbox Concerns.
Looking for a box? Use the handy Baltimore DOT (@bmorecitydot) map, link in the Bio.
Saltbox on Roland Heights Ave. and Dewey Ave., Hoes Heights.

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.
