Rehabbing continues, and some homes are still available at bargain prices for those interesting in investing sweat capital. There are also some apartment houses and a few old residences divided into apartments. Federal Hill is a cohesive, inclusive neighborhood with a strong community sense which works hard to preserve its individuality. The neighborhood is a federal historic district, and the northern portion has strict preservation and urban renewal requirements. There are still many residents who are second and third generation South Baltimoreans who are equally proud of their heritage.
Most homes are owner-occupied, but there is a good supply of rental housing as well.
Several of the most active real estate brokers live in the neighborhood and know it well. We welcome all who are committed to urban living. Federal Hill overlooks the Inner Harbor. It is a ten minute walk from HarborPlace and well within walking distance of most downtown businesses. Camden Yards, the new Ravens football stadium, the MARC rail line to Washington and a Light Rail station are all within a 20-minute walk.
