Revitalized community near Johns Hopkins Medical Campus
Once a place of disrepair, today Middle East is experiencing a surge of revitalization, partly because of its location next to the bustling Johns Hopkins Medical Campus. “Being so close to the hospital is a major selling point,” says Derek Blazer. “The convenience to the campus, downtown and Interstate 83 are drawing people to that area.” Middle East is an up-and-coming neighborhood with a mixed-use feel, offering newly renovated residential and commercial spaces, a hub of employment and a new urban park.
Residents of Middle East take pride in the neighborhood's rich cultural heritage.

Renovated rowhomes line Middle East's streets
Newcomers to the area can choose from two- or three-storied rowhouses with brick or stone exteriors and short front stoops. While most of these properties were built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many buyers have completed overhauls to the interior, with new appliances, flooring, paint jobs and roofing. With the homes situated mere feet from the roadways, yard space is virtually nonexistent, though some provide private back decks and patios. Several of the sidewalk-lined streets here are dotted with mature trees to add a touch of greenery. Price points range from $100,000 to $310,000. Blazer says the area is part of “Johns Hopkins’ Live Near Your Work program, which provides money for down payments and closing costs to employees.”

Mainstay market offers grab-and-go options
One of the added perks of living near the city center is the area’s walkability. Everyday essentials are situated along Washington Street. Stop by Starbucks for a cup of coffee, pick up prescriptions at Walgreens or grab a bite to eat at one of the nearby casual eateries, like Charley’s Cheesesteaks and Wings. 16 on the Park offers an upscale option. The rooftop restaurant offers city views and serves everything from lobster rolls to smash burgers. Locals looking to pick up takeout head to Helmand Kabobi, which has Middle Eastern-themed bowls, wraps and desserts. “Northeast Market is also close by and is a cool spot,” Blazer says. “There are several lunch spots there.” Established in 1885, the marketplace features local meat, seafood, produce vendors and some grab-and-go options – everything from pretzels to pizza and BBQ. Additional grocery staples can be found at the Save-A-Lot on East Monument Road.

Just a mile south, Patterson Park is a popular spot among locals who climb its famed three-story Pagoda, which features an observation deck overlooking the expansive green space.
