      Uncharted Travel buddy just a heads up you guys were very lucky not to stumble upon anything too bad.BGF is the largest gang in baltimore and you guys were wondering around their trap house. North Ave is not a place to take lightly. Stay safe guys, lived in Baltimore all my life, seen it all. Just to say you guys got lucky is an understatement. Great content as always tho appreciate it, just please do be safe, especially in hard gang territory

    People used paneling back in the day because it was a cheap way to cover old perhaps damaged plaster walls. Sometimes covering beautiful woodwork. My parents used paneling to cover old yucky walls after a kitchen fire. It was cheap and easy to install. Years later they tore it down and completely remodeled our home. I live in it now. It's a beautiful folk home built in 1812.

    Lived in baltimore all my life. BGF is one of the largest gangs in baltimore city. Black Gorilla Family I believe? That's why you found the drug paraphernalia it was most likely a gang trap house with the numbers. You made a good guess most definitely a trap house. BGF uses a lot of bible stuff as code also but most likely was an active corner that the sellers would rotate shifts and whatnot. Be safe Dan! I've been in plenty of bandos in Baltimore, never know what you'll run into, or who

    Hi Dan,
    Just another night in paradise. Wow. You guys are brave going into the West Baltimore triangle at night. Brave or crazy? Not sure which, maybe a bit of both. I'm surprised by the few rats you saw. Then the dying one explains it. They must have done a recent neighborhood bait to kill them off. They do that when they get real bad.
    You never cease to amaze me Dan, the places you go with no fear. I hope you're packin? You go into the worst places. One of these days I'm afraid your luck will run out my friend. I'm afraid you'll run into some junkie trying to get his fix, thinking you're there to take his stuff and it's gonna get ugly. It happens all the time. I pray to God to keep you all safe. I hope it helps. The world has gotten so mean and nasty. You never know what type of person you're going to run in to. I've been here from the beginning and I'll be here till the end. Blessings to you and yours. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures.
    Your Faithful Follower,
    Kathy B. (Fairylady0227) 💜

    They call it a "railroad apartment" when you have to go through one room to get to the next (like the bedrooms you mentioned). I've come across many of them and it would be a nightmare to live in but certainly better than nothing. They're common in NYC and surrounding areas.

    Walking through one bedroom to access another isn't uncommon in older houses. Usually the parents take the back room and the kids would have the front bedroom. It's especially common in older single family homes converted to apartments.

  • @higgsbosongirl
    @higgsbosongirl 5 лет назад +3

    I grew up in the time when all that brown paneling started appearing. I remember how wonderful middle class/working class people like my parents thought it was. It was considered somehow superior to painted walls and especially old-fashioned wallpaper (which I loved). You started seeing it everywhere. My mother had some paneling put up, but fortunately it was light-colored. Still ... I think part of the appeal was the walls didn't have to be painted. I began to have an aversion toward it early on. It was so depressing. I love seeing the old wallpapers underneath some of the paneling in old buildings. 70s decor has not held up.

    Relating to Goetze's... I am eating some awesome "Caramel Cremes" made by Goetze's Candy Co. in Baltimore, MD.

    I had to stop at 6:41 to comment: Dan, that paneling was even flimsier than you said! We used that when we added a room onto our summer cottage and it's a whopping *3mm* thick---less than 1/8 inch. Lovely! We even covered the ceiling with it and standing in the doorway looking across the ceiling at night, it looked like pecan-colored waves! Good thing it didn't move or you'd get mal de mer.

Shit just looks more genuine/natural n comfy too and I prefer it to a plaster wall slathered in chemicals that have micro particles that you'll end up breathing in on a daily basis but I guess that's just me.

    Great video Dan. Regarding the building I get the feeling that this wasn't built as an apartment block and was probably a single unit house before being converted to apartments. I think the narrow staircase is a clue to that but also the layout and small dimensions of the rooms. I am guessing it was renovated in the early '70s and converted in apartments then as a lot of the alterations that you made reference to seem to be of that era - eg wood panelling, the suspended polystyrene type ceiling panels, but also the fake stone cladding on the exterior.

    I have mice as pets and I still completely understand not liking them in the cities. Rats and mice must be so different when they are inside your house and getting into your food. Thanks for the video Dan. I wish there was some way for us to be able to see what these houses used to look like.

    Sad story. High taxes force businesses to close or move. People do move where the jobs are.

    Aw Dan, rats are only gross because they live in the filth of humans. :( They are actually fastidiously clean when they have the option to be.
