Mt. Vernon

I'm one of the oldest and most diverse neighborhoods in Baltimore. Just north of downtown, I'm over 200 years old and, frankly, pretty proud of it. Most of my parks and buildings look exactly the same as the day they were created when I was a fledgling neighborhood north of the city. I've got grand style and, more importantly, some of the city's best residents living within my boundaries. Artists, students, musicians, journeymen, waiters, activists, professionals, and teachers of all colors, classes, creeds, and countries live here - a great mix of wonderfully average, everyday people make me extraordinary.
