This thread illustrates why Baltimore is one of the greatest cities in the USA. There's a lot about it that reminds me of St. Louis. Check out some of my threads if you're interested:

In the 1890s Edward H. Bouton and the Roland Park Company developed a residential neighborhood in northwest Baltimore, now known as the Roland Park Historic District. Roland Park was one of the most successful and highly emulated planned streetcar suburbs. It was Baltimore's first residential development where deed restrictions governed the use of property and established common responsibility for the maintenance of the area. The architecture of the community typifies the romantic tastes of the turn of the century, with many examples of the Queen Anne, English Tudor, Georgian and Shingle styles. On the west side of Roland Avenue just north of Upland Avenue, one of the country's first shopping centers was built, in the English Tudor style.

The eastern portion of the development was planned in 1891 by City Beautiful designer George E. Kessler, while the western portion was laid out in 1897 by landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. Today, the district is often studied by students of planning for its emphasis on the proper use of the natural topography to enhance the community.

The Roland Park Historic District is located between Belvedere Ave., Falls Rd., 39th St. and Stoney Run, northwest of Johns Hopkins University on University Parkway. The houses within the district are primarily private residences not open to the public.

This theater is one of many beautiful theaters designed by Thomas White Lamb early in the 20th century.

Emerson Bromo-Seltzer Tower - Baltimore, Maryland
This historic structure, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was modeled after the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy. It was completed in 1911 and has been a Baltimore landmark ever since. The tower was designed by Joseph Evans Sperry and built by Captain Isaac Emerson, the inventor of Bromo-Seltzer. The tower was originally topped with a 51-foot revolving replica of the blue Bromo-Seltzer bottle, which was illuminated by 596 lights and could be seen from 20 miles away. The four clock faces are all still working; however, the bottle had to be removed in 1936 due to structural concerns.

Keswick and 34th. It's an old police station, rehabbed into office space. The lobby is quite beautiful.

Good to see some pics taken from the westside hills. They have spectacular views, but i don't know that side of town very well. Can anyone suggest a good corner to take shots from? Excellent pictures, they show a large collection of architecture and neighborhoods

StormShadow · November 4th, 2008, 09:14 AM

Please feel free to add neighborhoods or building images, ect.
