History, me complaining, history, stuff about the immediate hood (Truxton Circle) and the surrounding neighborhood (Shaw), gentrification, demographics, and some more history.
About Me
- Name: Mari
- Location: Hyattsville, MD, United States
This started as InShaw Now With More Gentrification which eventually moved to blog.inshaw.com. Now I mainly do Truxton Circle History, as I am the #1 expert in that topic! I created other blogs to serve a need or an itch.

I was interested to see that guy's comment about the theft of copper. I think I might have already told you that a friend of mine had the copper pipes stolen out of an investment property he was refurbishing in downtown Baltimore.
Has copper theft always been a problem? I had never heard of it, but now it seems to be a fairly serious issue.
Metal commodities are at a premium right now with copper and aluminum demanding the highest prices in years due to increase demand overseas. I remember that Baltimore had a problem within the last year where people were stealing lightpoles and guardrails and selling those items for scrap.
