Special thanks to all neighborhood associations under GMCC umbrella who did phenomenal work in 2016. Whether you fed the hungry, provided carbon monoxide detectors for senior, were involved in beautification projects and cleanups, planted trees, raised funds for  washers/dryers for homeless students to wash their clothes at school, or acquired funding to repair porches on Gwynns Falls Parkway, none of your efforts have gone unnoticed toward a cleaner, greener and safer community in  Greater Mondawmin.  Congratulations Parkway Community. After a three-year study, to reduce the number of accidents on Tioga Parkway, speed humps were installed  November 19th.
