Baltimore's Inner Harbor

"I enjoy the neighborhood feel; a different neighborhood for each experience."- Karlo Perica, M.D./Ph.D. student 

BALTIMORE CITY AND SURROUNDING AREA

Baltimore, the largest city in Maryland, is the center of a metropolitan area of 2.5 million people.  Baltimore is a vital city long known for its ethnic neighborhoods and, more recently, for its innovations in the preservation and restoration of urban homes. The city is located on the Chesapeake Bay, and its Inner Harbor is the center of restaurant, shopping and business districts.  The Inner Harbor is also the focus of one of the nation's most successful urban development programs.
