## Caption

Many Baltimoreans are missing typical routines of sitting in their favorite coffee shop or meeting friends for a movie. In this Letter from the Homefront, William “Bill” Hughes shared his new routine as he explored Hampden's empty Avenue. He wrote, "I’ve been around for over eight decades in Baltimore, the city of my birth. And I haven’t seen anything remotely related to this current pandemic." Read the rest of his letter written in April: https://www.mdhs.org/underbelly/2020/05/04/letters-from-the-homefront-baltimore-views/
