Artscape, a summer Baltimore Celebration of the Arts, brings national and local artist to the neighborhood in a three-day festival and celebration combining food, music, and the arts. The Bolton Hill Band Concert is an annual atraction in Fitzgerald Park featuring the Batlimore City Band with spirited music, good food, and cameradie. Most Bolton Hill residences were constructed between 1850 to 1900. Street front facades set them apart. Stone sills outline windows and liberal use of brown stone facade or massive grey stone at the base suggest very grand interiors.
Most houses exhibit massive marble steps and a liberal use of marble on the exterior.
The Beethoven Apartments, in the 1500 block of Park Avenue, were erected in the 19th century as Baltimore first streetfront terrace or group of houses constructed to appear as a single structure. The three and four-story graystone Friends Apartment at Park and Laurens was built by a Friends Congregation as a meeting house sometime before 1896. Friends School took over space in 1899. The property was converted to apartments in 1974. George Grundy, a Baltimore merchant from England, built the white pillared, three-storied landmark soon after the American Revolution.
