Lombard Street (Baltimore) - Corned Beef Row

Corned Beef Row

"Corned Beef Row" is a stretch of East Lombard Street that was once the center of Jewish life in Baltimore. Today, only a few landmarks remain. Notable is Attman's Delicatessen, founded in 1915, which is famous throughout the city for its hot corned beef sandwiches. Attman's Delicatessen was founded by Harry Attman. Harry had 3 sons: Edward Attman (founder of Acme Paper & Supply ), Seymour Attman, and Leanord Attman (founder of Attman Properties). Since Harry, the deli has been operated by his son Seymour and now Harry's grandson Marc Attman. Attman's Delicatessen is the oldest Jewish deli in the country still operated by the original family.

Famous quotes containing the words beef and/or row:

    That night ended the day when history was written in Abilene. August 14, 1865 was the date. That was the end of the first drive on the Chisolm Trail. It was just the first of thousands of such drives bringing beef to the world.
    Borden Chase [Frank Fowler] (1900–1971)

    One can describe a landscape in many different words and sentences, but one would not normally cut up a picture of a landscape and rearrange it in different patterns in order to describe it in different ways. Because a photograph is not composed of discrete units strung out in a linear row of meaningful pieces, we do not understand it by looking at one element after another in a set sequence. The photograph is understood in one act of seeing; it is perceived in a gestalt.
