Brewers Hill Vs. Canton Vs. Fells Point
Hello. My husband and I, currently living in Federal Hill, are looking to buy on the eastern side of the city. We've found a lot of houses we like, but one in particular was in Brewers Hill. We haven't spent any time yet in Brewers Hill and would like opinions of the neighborhood concerning safety, things to do, and parking. We are both young 20s and enjoy Fells Point and Canton a lot. Are those areas walkable from Brewers Hill?
Thanks!

Brewers Hill blends in with Canton. There really isn't much difference between the two. Fells and Canton are both easily walkable from Brewers. The safety factor may be a bit better in Brewers and Canton. |

Just trying to learn myself.
What makes Brewers & Canton more safe?
Is it because Fells has more nightlife, i.e. people coming in from elsewhere to go bar-hopping, etc.? Just guessing, and trying to get a feel for these neighborhoods of Baltimore... |

Being in Federal Hill, why not just drive over to Canton? Brewer's Hill is a new development on the East side of Canton with new shops and housing. It has taken over the area where the former Natty Boh brewery facility is.
As far as walking to Fell's Point, it's a bit of a hike (about 2 miles). Certainly doable but probably better by bike.
I am a realtor with Long and Foster in Fell's Point and living in Canton. If you have any specific questions feel free to email me. davidjacques@lnf.com |

Brewers Hill basically straddles Highlandtown and Canton. Two very different communities with not a whole lot of interaction between them. Brewers Hill was an industrial (breweries) area and still has that feel to it to me. I'd look in Canton, west of the square.
