Flagship Neighborhood: Federal Hill

No neighborhood has benefited from the trend in urban renewal quite like Federal Hill, where professional 20- and 30-somethings as well as a growing flock of empty-nesters have bought up and renovated the 19th-century brick row houses and created a lively and tightknit community dominated by singles and newlyweds enjoying the first blush of urban living. Federal Hill contains a phalanx of bars and restaurants, the newly renovated Cross Street Market, funky, locally owned shops and is located within walking distance of the Inner Harbor and downtown so residents can often walk to work.

If Federal Hill is the wild party girl, its neighbor Otterbein is the quiet, studious sister. Featuring similar brick row house architecture but in a quieter setting, Otterbein appeals to those who've matured away from Federal Hill's revelry but still want to be near its vitality.
