Pictures, Thoughts, Memories, Ideas of Clay Street

Whats good?

Okay, I been working on the new website, to be www.IliveonClayStreet.com, and we are coming to the point now that we need to populate the site with pictures, thoughts, and some of the history of the neighborhood. So, again let me thank everyone for getting on and adding their two cents to the goings on in the local area. Now, I am looking to see if we can take this participation thing another step forward. Since this is being designed as a site for the community by the community, I am asking those that have stories to share, pictures, videos, or historical facts to please add the images or your contact information to the comment list below this entry. If you have pictures that need to be scanned, we can meet over at the Stanton Center or maybe the computer learning center. I am pretty sure that one of them have a scanner we can use.

In addition to the site itself being complete with a history of the neighborhood, there will be a few other features. In my mind, the most important will be a message board that will give us all a place to create our own posts, to find out about community happenings, job opportunities, and updates on progress in the neighborhood. We will probably also have a place for the Clay Street Social Club. (more on that in coming entries).

By the way, I was at a meeting the other day in the Stanton Center and I saw the layout of the new “Old 4th Ward” dedication that is going to be erected at the intersection of Washington and West Street. It is really attractive, about 10 feet in height and full of amazing facts and photos from years past spelling out that Clay Street is the “Harlem of Annapolis”.
