You too can live in Baltimore, for $850,000

Merchant Row
 
   just two blocks from my work, two blocks from Soundgarden and right next door to Fletchers, which may soon be a martini bar!!!!!!

[godsshoeshine]

those are actually pretty nice. $850k for that nice of a location in most cities would not get you a place like that

[sonickteam]

i dont think you could get a JOB in Baltimore that pays for that place though.....unless you have a good batting average!

[godsshoeshine]

of course not. that kind of place in that location is for the richest people in town in any city

They butt up to Fletchers (which is oddly missing from the right in the drawing), have H&S bakery right across the street making bread 24/7 and have lots of cars roaring up and down the street all day and night.  Oh, and often across the street is where people stop to puke before getting stuck in the 83 traffic.  Oh and that "street" on the left is a pretty crappy looking alley.

From those balconies I bet you have a nice view of the public housing projects a few blocks north.

Since when did you need a good batting average to play for Baltimore?

anyone in baltimore see all those houses they are building right next to presidents st + lombard (i think)....i think there used to be projects there.  pretty crazy to be building all those rowhouses right next to downtown.
 
 baltimore rent used to be cheap...now its starting to rival dc  

[sonickteam]

yeah, right by little Italy...they've been tearing down projects left and right.  over by the stadiums they are putting another luxury condo development and by the Baltimore Arena signs say "come see Baltimore's new West Side"  
 
   i better get a house here soon before i have to shell out $250k.......

Those aren't your everyday rowhouses darlin'.  Those are our new Baltimore housing "projects."  Pretty nice for the projects aren't they?  I'm glad this is where a lot of our tax money is going.  There's nothing like supporting your local heroin pushing baby-poppers.  Ten years from now those houses will be trashed.  Unfortunate but true.
