Many of the city's top cultural and tourist attractions are only
blocks away from Historic Federal Hill. Visitors can leave their
cars parked and walk from the American Visionary Arts Museum, the
Baltimore Convention Center, the Baltimore Museum of Industry,
Harborplace and the Gallery, the Maryland Science Center, the National
Aquarium, Oriole Park at Camden Yards, the Pier Six Concert Pavilion,
Port Discovery Children's Museum, the Power Plant and Ravens Stadium.
Historic Federal Hill could not be more conveniently located.
Sitting just south of Baltimore's world famous Inner Harbor, the
neighborhood is easily accessible from every direction.
Out-of-town visitors can walk to Federal Hill from their hotel
rooms. The four-star Hyatt Regency and Harbor Court Hotels, as
well as the Sheraton Inner Harbor, are located a few blocks north of
the neighborhood. While the more intimate surroundings of Federal
Hill's charming 'bed and breakfast' inns draw a more leisurely
crowd. The construction of a new Ritz Carlton on the
waterfront at the foot of Federal Hill Park is underway. When it
is completed, Baltimore's first five-star hotel will be located just
around the corner.
Visitors driving into Federal Hill have easy access from every direction!
The neighborhood is readily accessible from Interstate 95, the
Baltimore–Washington Parkway and Interstate 83. Parking spaces
are plentiful, with over 1,000 on-and off street parking spaces located
within five blocks of the Cross Street Market, including 250 parking
spaces in the West Street Parking Garage. In addition, many of
Federal Hill's restaurants and shops offer their own parking
accommodations. Unlike many downtown neighborhoods, visiting
Historic Federal Hill by car is easy and convenient.
Federal Hill is well served by public transportation. Visitors
travel directly by MTA bus, Light Rail and the MARC commuter rail, with
easy connections from BWI Airport and Amtrak's Penn Station. Or
they may walk the few short blocks from the Metro Subway. The
Inner Harbor's water taxi provides easy access to and from other great
waterfront neighborhoods and attractions, such as Fell’s Point, Canton
and Fort McHenry on the tip of Locust Point.
