[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Baltimore's population has been in steady decline since the 1950s. There has been an unabated epidemic of murders since the riots following the arrest/death of Freddy Grey. Couple these facts with incompetent leadership, and Baltimore city's future is not bright. Why waste a high speed rail line on Baltimore?[/quote] DC was the same way. A 15 minute commute to 150k housing stock?[/quote] But the transit within Baltimore is non-existent. What caused gentrification in D.C. was a certain urban, walkable lifestyle. Metro helps with that. In Baltimore, there is nothing equivalent to Metro. So maglev will get you to one section of Baltimore, but it won't link up with any transit within Baltimore.[/quote]
