The breweries were home to the Gunther\, Shaefer\, Hamm\, and of course Natty Boh labels\, and was where the nation’s first “six pack” was invented in the 1940s. The 27 acre brewery site is surrounded by the Brewers Hill neighborhood\, which developed between 1915 and 1920 and is replete with rows of brick homes and marble steps. Join David Knipp\, a project manager for the redevelopment of the Brewers Hill complex\, on a tour of the brewery site in all of its beer-making glory and current buzz of activity. \n  \nExplore all five of our spring Baltimore by Foot walking tours!

John Goucher was overseeing the building of today’s Lovely Lane United Methodist Church in the mid-1880s\, he was also helping establish a college for women to give them “equal advantages in the business of life.” Founded in 1885 as the Woman’s College of Baltimore City (“City” was dropped in 1890)\, it began with a few stone buildings and the spirit to become one of the leading institutions of higher education in the country. The College expanded its campus from 22nd to 24th Streets\, and from Calvert Street to Maryland Avenue to eventually include twenty-six buildings for academics\, physical training\, student life\, and presidents’ homes. In 1910\, the name was changed to Goucher College to honor John and Mary Goucher. \nBy the second decade of the 20th century\, increased traffic and restrictions on expansion led the College to purchase land in Towson in 1921 to create a more open environment for its growing student body. Construction was delayed until the early 1940s\, and Goucher maintained two campuses until its final move in 1954\, after selling its downtown buildings to various individuals and organizations.  \nJoin Marilyn Warshawsky\, author of John Franklin Goucher: Citizen of the World and a trustee emerita of the College\, at Lovely Lane for a tour of this historic church\, a presentation of archival photos of original college buildings\, and a walking tour of the campus that is now part of the diverse community known as Old Goucher.  \n  \nExplore all five of our spring Baltimore by Foot walking tours!

This community is home to Ebenezer AME\, the third oldest African Methodist Episcopal church in the nation\, and has been home to a vital African American community since the late 1700s. As in West Baltimore\, residents struggled against displacement and demolition by highways projects in the 1960s and continue to organize against gentrification. The walking tour not only highlights this long history\, but will also offer a chance to hear stories from long-time residents on their everyday experiences growing up in the neighborhood in the 1940s and 1950s. \n  \nExplore all five of our spring Baltimore by Foot walking tours!

There was Robert Poole: the leading employer of iron workers in Baltimore\, and across the tracks\, William Hooper\, whose Meadow Mill was a monument to his textile enterprise during a time of national depression. \nLearn the story of the rise\, eventual fall\, and recent rebirth of this important site of Baltimore industry. Plus get updated on the recent movement to designate Woodberry as a Baltimore City historic district.

Virtually every famous entertainer of the day played here: Bill Holliday\, Redd Foxx\, Cab Calloway\, to name just a few. Today Pennsylvania Avenue is on its way to being the newest designated Arts and Entertainment District and would be the city’s only one focusing on black artists. The arts designation will help spur ongoing revitalization. \nRecently\, National Geographic awarded the Arch Social Club (founded in 1912) over $100\,000\, and state investments have resulted in facade improvement along many blocks.

L. Mencken Think of Summer Concerts & Window Boxes DESCRIPTION:Built on the former estate of Baltimore’s second mayor\, Thorowgood Smith\, beginning in the 1840s\, Union Square was The Place to live for a new burgeoning class of lawyers\, doctors and other professionals. “Millionaire’s Row” ran along Stricker Street adjacent to the park and nearby Hollins Market (the city’s oldest standing public market building) bustled with activity. \nToday\, with concerts in the park in the summertime\, a significant uptick in rehab activity\, and the imminent start to reopening H.L. Mencken’s home on the Square\, Union Square has a vibrant feel. Join long-time resident and Baltimore historian professor Betsy Nix on a walking tour to  learn about the history of this gorgeous neighborhood and how its historic architecture is helping to fuel a rebirth. \nExplore all five of our spring Baltimore by Foot walking tours.

He found plenty of demand for his trade after Baltimore’s Great Fire of 1904 and the burgeoning residential growth of the city as it pushed into the surrounding farmlands. One such area was the Tuscany-Canterbury neighborhood—a 90-acre residential treasure\, just north of Johns Hopkins University Homewood Campus\, celebrating its centennial this year. \nFriz was deeply involved in helping to form the character of the neighborhood\, where he lived and designed its architecture over several decades (between the 1910s and the 1930s)\, drawing from such Revival styles as Half-Timbered Tudor\, Italian Renaissance\, and the Mediterranean. Few may know of these tucked away projects today\, but at the time\, Friz received numerous accolades through national architectural publications. \nJoin us on a walking tour to explore some of Baltimore’s most significant apartment houses. Our tour guides are Jillian Storms\, AIA\, who has been studying Clyde Friz’s life and grew up in the neighborhood\, and Baltimore historian Charlie Duff. The tour will begin at The Scottish Rite Temple and include The Tuscany\, The Lombardy\, and The Gardens of Guilford. We’ll be treated to a peek inside numerous apartments\, including the maids quarters that made this genteel living possible in its day. \nPlease note: This tour will involve hilly terrain and stairs. The apartment houses on this tour do not have elevators. \nExplore all five of our spring Baltimore by Foot walking tours.

Annexed into the city in 1888 and served by the “Belt Line” of the B&O Railroad beginning in the 1890s\, home construction took off and the area just north of Green Mount Cemetery became a middle-income community of rowhouses\, shops\, and industry. \nDisinvestment began after World War II and was compounded by riots in the neighborhood following the assassination of Martin Luther King\, Jr. in the 1960s. Today\, residents and partner organizations like the Central Baltimore Partnership and Jubilee Baltimore have embarked on a new revitalization plan. Join local leaders on a walking tour to see how East Baltimore Midway is transforming into a vibrant community with school improvements\, new live/work spaces and more. \nExplore all five of our spring Baltimore by Foot walking tours.
