Mr. Trash Wheel: Using natural forces to clean Baltimore’s waters
Baltimore, MD has stepped out of the box with a one-of-a-kind model to manage municipal trash, power homes, and educate citizens and cities around the world—all without leaving the Harbor.
A Boat Named 'Mr. Trash Wheel' Is Single-Handedly Cleaning Up Baltimore Harbor
Baltimore Harbor is where the Jones Falls River empties, but it doesn't always empty just water; it also brings with it all the trash and debris from upstream. As you can imagine, the result is pretty unsightly.
Python on the lam is all wrapped up in Baltimore’s Water Wheel
Adam Lindquist wasn’t sure what to make of the handsome, five-foot brown and black snake that Nate Appleby-Kellett found curled Wednesday around the Water Wheel in the Inner Harbor.
“It was a good-sized snake,” Lindquist said. “Nate took one look at it and backed away.”
Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing and promoting the waterfront district, parks, and public spaces. We create welcoming programs, events, and recreational experiences while working toward a healthy harbor. We are committed to fostering connections among diverse communities to ensure equitable access to our blue and green space
