Description:
FELLS POINT. Fell's Point derives its name from William Fell, the shipbuilder who purchased the land in 1726. Fell's Point, Jones Town, and Baltimore Town were incorporated in 1773 to create what we know today as Baltimore. Jones Falls stopped the Great Baltimore Fire of 1904, so Fell's Point is still home to over 350 original colonial period buildings including the oldest house in Baltimore (now a museum), which was built in 1765. Today Fell's Point is a mix of commercial and residential buildings. Most people claim the area comes to life at night, but there are many boutiques and antique shops that make a stroll in this nationally registered Historic District a pleasant daytime activity. |

Description:
Hampden is widely accepted as the "real Baltimore," where you can go to hear and see the city's natives in action. It is also a university center; this area of Baltimore is home to Loyola College, Johns Hopkins University, and the University of Baltimore. Perhaps due to the student influence, Hampden is known for its wide range of vintage clothing stores, thrift shops, and used furniture stores. The Baltimore Zoo and some of the city's oldest mills are also located here. |

Description:
MT VERNON. This section of town owes its name to the towering 178-foot monument to our first president, which dominates the area. When this neighborhood was created in 1827, it was considered an upscale, fashionable place to live, and that is still the case today. Lovely, ornate townhomes, relaxing parks and gardens, fine shops, and plenty of special touches such as fountains and statues make this a pleasant, historic place for a stroll. Take in the classic architecture after visiting a gallery or attending a cultural event in lovely Mount Vernon. |
