As its name indicates, Downtown Baltimore is the central hub for the city's commerce, recreation, culture, and tourism. Although the majority of properties in the area are rental apartments, more and more luxury high-rise condominiums are being developed as home buyers seek to be closer to the hundreds of businesses, restaurants, clubs, and cultural attractions that make the Inner Harbor and its surrounding areas the most popular place in Baltimore.

With the success of other Baltimore areas like Harbor East, plans have been set in motion to redevelop the already world-famous Inner Harbor into a luxury shopping mecca. Officials are currently drafting plans that will place high end retailers alongside the already highly successful restaurants, local landmarks such as the Power Plant and Market Place, and the always innovative Maryland Science Center and National Aquarium In Baltimore.

Because Downtown Baltimore surrounds the harbor of the Chesapeake Bay, newly constructed high rise apartments take full advantage of the breathtaking views. But for those looking for a brick row house or town home with a front stoop and small backyard, many can be found in the surrounding downtown neighborhoods of Ridgley's Delight, Washington Heights, and Camden Crossing. Each of these neighborhoods is within walking distance to local businesses and the prestigious University of Maryland Law and Dental Schools, which has resulted their recent revitalization.

Condos, row houses, and converted warehouse loft spaces in the Downtown district are in high demand and prices can easily move upwards depending on their location and Bay views. But, for buyers looking to enjoy life in the heart of the city, Downtown Baltimore is the perfect place to call home.

In April 2008, the average home selling price in Baltimore was $181,938, with an average price per square foot of $164. These figures include both single family homes and condos. While this data is collected from the MLS and deemed reliable, it is not guaranteed.
