Oldtown spans a storied stretch of east Baltimore where brick rowhouses meet big plans for what comes next. Just steps from Downtown and Jonestown, the neighborhood is being reimagined through the Perkins Somerset Oldtown initiative, a city-led transformation bringing new mixed‑income housing, greenspace, and improved streetscapes to the historic Old Town Mall corridor. Explore the vision at the official Perkins Somerset Oldtown Transformation page.
Daily life is convenient and connected. Grab prepared meals and fresh produce at the revitalized Northeast Market, or walk to world‑class care and employment at The Johns Hopkins Hospital. Fitness and community programs return to a local icon at the revitalized Chick Webb Recreation Center. On weekends, waterfront dining in Fells Point and shopping in Harbor East are an easy hop away, while the arts and culture of Mount Vernon keep calendars full.
Families appreciate nearby schools, including Paul Laurence Dunbar High School and City Springs Elementary/Middle, both offering a range of academics and extracurriculars. Commuters benefit from multiple car‑free options: the free Charm City Circulator links Oldtown to key business and entertainment districts, and MDOT MTA’s Metro SubwayLink at Johns Hopkins Hospital puts the broader region within quick reach.
Whether you’re eyeing a renovated rowhome or anticipating new PSO residences, Oldtown offers access, authenticity, and opportunity at a price point still approachable for many. When it’s time to make a move, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a trusted local real estate pro to navigate the neighborhood with confidence.
