On this episode of the South Baltimore Now! podcast, Kevin Lynch interviews District 11 Councilman Eric T. Costello. Councilman Costello has been in office for almost 10 years and is seeking reelection next month. He is being challenged by Federal Hill resident Zac Blanchard. Lynch and Councilman Costello discuss Councilman Costello’s arrival in South Baltimore following an upbringing in Binghamton, New York; his ascend to Councilman after being President of Federal Hill Neighborhood Association; the day-to-day joys and challenges of being on the City Council; his quest for reelection; and his thoughts on topics such as Digital Harbor High School, crime, development, and local business.
