We don't have the server space to go into the whole saga from an April 2009 foreclosure to this point (I covered it for another publication at the time), but suffice it to say it took a while. The new owners will hold a community meeting to officially announce their plans tonight.
- Mary J. Blige dropped by Towson yesterday to promote her new line of sunglasses. We have photos.
