Love our new neighborhood. A diverse and changing "up and coming" neighborhood in the City of Baltimore with easy 15-20 minute commute to downtown Penn Station area. People joke that it is where Canton neighborhooders move when they have a kid. The neighborhood is affordable, more space, older homes that need fixing, and yards...real yards. It also has a walkability score in the 60s which ain't bad because there is a the Harford Road corridor of businesses. Kind of a funky mix of places...an art gallery and Hamilton Bakery near a street front church or podiatrist...a blend of old and new hip businesses like Hamilton Tavern across from old old local bar Brannan's Pub. There is the yuppy farmers market-like Green Onion store which makes its own sausages (best I have ever had...seriously) nearby a CVS and old pizza store. They also have a massive Hamilton Street Festival each year and a farmers market on Tuesday in Lauraville down the street.
This neighborhood has legs....it is diverse...changing...old...new...funky...urban...but with a lot of people digging in to improve it and get people here. We are loving it. read more
