PROJECT TITLE: Transforming B&O RR Museum Archival Storage Capacity and Access

PROJECT SUMMARY:

This grant would fund the pre-development phase for a new B&O Railroad Museum Archival Center utilizing an existing building on the Museum’s 40 acre campus. Included in this phase would be staff and volunteer time for debris removal and for care, consolidation and preparation of the archives and yet to be processed materials. To ready the archives and the building of assessment, a forklift will need to be purchased to move around large and heavy items presently in the warehouse. Three bids will be obtained and consultants retained for doing preliminary architectural and engineering site inspections, assessments and designs for updating the Museum’s current warehouse located at 651 S. Fulton Street. The 29,000 square foot space is not temperature or humidity controlled at present.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Project Description

The B&O Railroad Museum retained global experts in visitor attractions design and developed a master plan in June 2017 for enhancing visitor experience, facility planning, and defining the role and needs of the collection and archives of the Museum. This project is a next step in realizing the recommendations in that plan for establishing an Archival Center for the Museum. Presently, the Museum’s archival material resides in several locations throughout the Museum’s campus. This project seeks to consolidate and provide the proper conditions for those materials and to make them more readily accessible to researcher and the general public.

Will any aspects of the project cause ground disturbance (utility lines, footings, underpinnings, grading, signage installation, etc.)?

In this pre-development preparation, planning, and design phase, no aspects of the project will cause ground disturbance.

Do any aspects of the project have potential to disturb lead paint, asbestos, oil tanks, or other hazardous materials?

In this pre-development preparation, planning and design phase, no aspects of the project have potential to disturb lead paint, asbestos, oil tanks, or other hazardous materials.

How will completing the project accomplish the goals and objectives your organization?

This project will advance a critical step in the master plan for the Museum to consolidate its archives into an Archival Center to ensure the indefinite care of one of Maryland's most important historical archives and collections. This requires updating our current facility’s environmental conditions to contemporary standards for collections care and processing – temperature, lighting, humidity control. In doing this, the B&O will make an amazing collection of Maryland history available to scholars and researchers from around the world.

How will completing this project accomplish the goals and objectives of your heritage area?

This project will support scholarly research, bring more tourism and visitors to our Baltimore National Heritage Area, and help spur economic development by creating a more safe and visited space in a challenged part of Baltimore City. This project aims to support the goals of the BNHA to attract tourism, enhance visitor experience and foster great collaborationist partnerships. We are excited this project may bring more local students into contact with source material in bringing history more alive for them.

The B & O Planning Project is fully aligned with Heritage Area’s mission, goals and objectives. Specifically, the mission of the Baltimore National Heritage is to: “to promote, preserve, and enhance Baltimore’s historic and cultural legacy and natural resources for current and future generations.” This project advances the Baltimore National Heritage Area’s goal to promote, preserve, and enhance Baltimore’s historic and cultural legacy and natural resources for current and future generations; and through stewardship: “Strengthen support for the preservation of Baltimore’s heritage resources.” This project also fits the strategic objective of: Historic Preservation: “Promote protection and preservation of the heritage area’s historic resources.”

DELIVERABLES:

What will be the results of this project? What tangible and intangible deliverables do you anticipate?

Thousands of items both in the Museum's collection and others not yet processed will be identified, properly stored and readied for future processing and placement into a future archival center of the Museum. Hundreds of pounds of debris will have been removed from the building and it will be readied for both the preliminary engineering and architectural site assessments and designs as well as the better care and storage of archival materials in the interim. Structural needs will have been identified, site assessments and designs will be ready for the next phase. Equipment needs for the archival center including work stations for volunteers and the public and meeting space for programming will have been identified.

URGENCY:

Is this project urgent?

This project is urgent. The Museum has recently hired a new Chief Curator an a new Archivist. Their recent survey of the Museum's archival and collection materials stored in the warehouse and elsewhere on the campus, has identified signs of significant deterioration, particularly among paper and fabric materials, due to a lack of consistent environmental monitoring and clean storage conditions. As time goes on, this deterioration will worsen and may result in significant losses of unique artifacts. Also, at present our limited climate-controlled storage on the main campus is at maximum capacity, putting pressure on the Museum to turn away potentially historically significant items because we can not ensure they will be preserved and stored in an appropriate manner. Finally, with an inability to process more materials, due to a lack of additional climate-controlled storage, researchers and scholars are unable to benefit from a large portion of the museum’s collections. A new facility would not only increase our capacity to preserve our collection, but would also increase access and our ability to process materials for the benefit of future generations.

IMPACT:

Describe how this project will address one or more of the Maryland Heritage Area's Program's three areas of focus.

By increasing access to the B&O Railroad Museum's archives, the Museum will forge new partnerships with other local archives. We plan to include meeting space in the future Archive Center as well to bring these partners into contact with each other and original source materials from the B&O archives.

Does your project support or highlight the diverse history and cultural traditions of Maryland? If so, please provide details.

The archives of the Museum provide insights and illuminate the histories and heritage of workers, merchants, African Americans, and Irish and Jewish immigrants among others.

B&O Railroad Museum's West Campus Warehouse

While the building itself at 651 S. Fulton Ave. is not historically significant, it is located on the campus of the B&O Railroad Museum, a National Historic Landmark, and the documents contained in it contain context of historical significance. The building site is directly across from the Carroll Park and The Carroll Mansion, the oldest Colonial-era structure in the City of Baltimore. The public can visit the site by getting off at one of the museum's train stops along the historic first mile of commercial railroad track laid in America.

Date of Construction / Alterations

The Warehouse at 651 S. Fulton Street was built in 1967. It is a former furniture warehouse that the museum acquired in the 1990s. In the aftermath of the collapse of the roof of the Museum's historic Roundhouse in 2003, much of the Museum's collection was moved to this site for storage.

1. The B&O Museum is looking to improve their current warehouse facility located at 651 S.

Fulton Street. 2. Existing warehouse is approximately 29,000SF and is currently unconditioned. 3. Structural bays are approximately spaced at 35’ in one direction and 50’ the other

direction. 4. The purpose of the proposed work is to develop an assessment and plan for upgrading
