Curtis Bay Baltimore, MD

Located along the Patapsco River about seven miles south of downtown Baltimore, Curtis Bay once served as a major manufacturing hub and has since developed into a quiet, residential neighborhood full of houses, townhomes, and apartments. Residents who like to stay active go to William J. Myers Pavilion, an indoor sports facility equipped for soccer, lacrosse, volleyball, and boxing. If you want to stay outdoors, Curtis Bay Park offers plenty of open grass, a playground, and a skate park. Locals usually visit surrounding neighborhoods for entertainment, as Curtis Bay's close proximity to Interstate 895 makes driving to other parts of Baltimore a breeze. When you feel like staying local, check out Fred and Margie's, an all-American diner and bar that also offers live music on select evenings.
