An Out-of-This World Gastropub in Baltimore’s Hampden
When Geoff Danek moved to the Hampden neighborhood of Baltimore in 2002, he had no idea that three guys back in the 1920s tried to build a 24-foot-tall rocket ship right in his garage. The local restaurant owner was told of the local legend by a customer – the legend of Baltimore native and so-called “mathematical genius” Robert Condit, who had used the home’s garage to build a rocket with his two friends, Harry and Sterling Uhler, in 1927 and 1928. They truly believed this rocket would take Condit to the planet Venus.
