Charles Village, Baltimore: Charles Village is a neighborhood located in the north-central area of Baltimore, Maryland, USA.  It is a middle-class area with many single-family homes that is in proximity to many of Baltimore's urban amenities.  The neighborhood began in 1869 when 50 acre of land were purchased for development.  The land was divided and turned over to various builders who constructed home exteriors, leaving the interiors to be custom built according to buyer specifications.  The area was first developed as a streetcar suburb in the early 20th century, and is thought to be the first community to employ tract housing tactics.  At the time, the area was known as "Peabody Heights;" the moniker "Charles Village," derived from Charles Street, the area's major north-south corridor, was coined in the 1970s as the beginning of a process of conceptually grouping a large and somewhat heterogeneous area.  The neighborhood history has been researched and published by Gregory J. Alexander and Paul K. Williams in their book "Charles Village: A Brief History" (The History Press, 2009).
