Description

Tucked away between Canton and John's Hopkins Medical Center, you'll find Baltimore's up-and-coming neighborhood -- Patterson Park. A designated historic district, Patterson Park is within walking distance of a variety of the city's best restaurants, nightlife, and cultural activities. But what it really boasts is a true sense of community. Patterson Park is a small town in the heart of the city--where neighbors greet each other on the streets, socialize and play together, and work together to create Baltimore's next great neighborhood.




History

Patterson Park and its surrounding neighborhoods have been the hub of southeast Baltimore since the mid-nineteenth century. Boasting attractive, solid housing stock and a lush 155-acre city park, the area was for decades home to a mix of working class families, many of Eastern European descent. Many of those families were drawn to the neighborhood due to its proximity to the Baltimore waterfront, with its thousands of well paying blue-collar jobs.

Today, Patterson Park is the city's most vibrant, family-friendly park. The surrounding neighborhoods are thriving again. Neighbors know one another and are proud of their community. And with the continuing revitalization of southeast Baltimore and the creation of thousands of new jobs, we expect the quality of life to continue increasing in this up-and-coming neighborhood.

Educational Resources

From pre-school to high school, Baltimore City’s schools serve students and families across more than 225 neighborhoods. Parents and students have numerous choices from public, private, parochial, and charter schools. Many elementary schools are zoned geographically, but are increasingly becoming schools of choice. All high schools are choice schools and all middle schools are becoming schools of choice in 2010-2011. This means students can apply to attend any school in the City regardless of their home address; some schools do have admission criteria. All charter schools and Transformation Schools have lotteries for admission.

Baltimore offers a wealth of opportunities when it comes to higher education at both the undergraduate, graduate and technical education levels. The seventeen colleges and universities within or near the City enroll more than 120,000 students. Through the Baltimore Collegetown Network, 16 area colleges cooperate and share resources, such as shuttle buses and libraries.
