Two wonderful partners and I started a business in this building a long time ago. I’ve always loved the look of this structure, and it’s always great returning to the town I started my newspaper career in.
Having the Patapsco River right beside it was a beautiful and calming thing. Except when it rained hard. That stream can turn into a raging river in no time.
The OEC (Old Ellicott City) sign wasn’t there when we were residents.
I have great memories each time I wander this town. Unfortunately, the days of a local community newspaper have passed it seems.
