Union Square, Baltimore - Overview

Overview

Named for the graceful park at its center, Union Square is a diverse urban setting - home to art galleries, artist studios, H.L. Mencken’s lifelong residence, and spacious three-story Italianate and Victorian rowhouses. On the historic ground of Southwest Baltimore known to locals as Sowebo, Union Square is less than a mile from Camden Yards and within walking distance of the Inner Harbor, B&O Railroad Museum, Ravens Stadium, and the University of Maryland, Baltimore. The state-of-the-art UMB Biotech Park on West Baltimore Street is a recent addition, with portions still under construction. A public golf course is nearby, next to the newly-renovated Montgomery Park office building. Access to I-83, I-95 and the MARC Train to Washington, D.C. are minutes away.
