Baltimore Neighborhoods (Postcard History Series)

Roan Mountain depicts this history of this small and diverse appalachian community. Baltimore’s rich diversity is represented by its many neighborhoods–95 at last count. Some neighborhoods meander for several city blocks while others claim only a few. This volume of vintage postcards provides unique glimpses into the past of many of Baltimore’s neighborhoods. Included are the elegant homes of Roland Park, Guildford, and Sherwood Gardens, the workingman’s Highlandtown, South Baltimore, and Locust Point, the streetcar suburbs of Mount Washington, Overlea, Ten Hills, and Hunting Ridge, and the city park-anchored communities of Patterson Park, Federal Hill, and Gwynns Falls. Readers will find no two communities alike.
