Kenilworth

Kenilworth Avenue in Towson, which was closed by a water main rupture March 26, is expected to reopen to through traffic this afternoon. David Fidler of the Baltimore County Public Works Department said a temporary patch is to be paved today, adding that it will suffice until the road settles and work can be completed. The rupture of the 48-inch pipe produced a gaping sinkhole on the commuter shortcut, which connects Charles Street with Bosley Avenue. Several nearby homes were flooded and six Towson area schools had to be closed.

The floors at the Shops at Kenilworth are stripped, the ceilings ripped out, and the fountain is drained. Scaffolding stands throughout the mall. It's not a pretty sight now, but the Towson mall's owners promise major upgrades by next month as the 30-year-old center undergoes a $3 million makeover - its largest in nearly 20 years. The owners, Kenilworth Limited Partners of Cincinnati, want to modernize the mall, which the owners acknowledge has a dated, 1970s look. The changes come as Towson is undergoing a billion-dollar renaissance with new condominiums, apartments and shopping.

Baltimore County officials are seeking changes to a new traffic and zoning plan in the Towson area - excising community opposition to the disputed jail expansion, some residents complain. The original text of the "Kenilworth Drive Corridor Plan," completed in October, includes a section on the Baltimore County Detention Center saying that the community has urged the county to find an alternative site for the expanded jail. It notes the community's concerns about traffic, parking, lighting and other issues, and adds that the residential communities nearby should be protected from any negative effects of the expansion.

They've never liked being neighbors with a jail. Residents living along Morningside and Kenilworth drives in Towson say they love their neighborhood but hate the local lockup, and they don't want it to grow. If it isn't music blasting from the cars of families visiting inmates, it's the roar of motorcycles used by employees as they leave after late-night shifts, they say. Then there's the trash that neighbors say is often left around the entrance to the 19-year-old Baltimore County Detention Center on Kenilworth Drive.
