White Marsh, MD

Situated just outside of Baltimore along I-95, White Marsh is a great location for shoppers -- this is home to the popular White Marsh Mall and the large outdoor shopping plaza, Avenue at White Marsh. Just outside White Marsh, the strip plaza Nottingham Square provides additional shops and restaurants. For those who prefer parks, Honeygo Run Regional Park is a large park at the heart of the neighborhood. The park features an indoor recreation center, ball fields, a roller hockey court, picnic areas, hiking trails, and the Perry Paw Dog Park.

Unlike much of the DC region, White Marsh doesn't have a long history -- it was mostly undeveloped until around 1965, when the Harry T. Campbell Sons Corporation decided to buy the land and design a town. At that time, the mall was designed to be the heart of the neighborhood. Today, this picturesque, tree-filled suburb provides fast commutes to Downtown Baltimore, just 16 miles southwest, and even to DC, located 49 miles southwest. The Megabus provides fast access to Washington DC, whisking passengers into the city in about an hour.
