Union Square is Baltimore's BEST location! The old saying goes “Home is where the heart is!” – and Union Square is a great place to call home. Another fundamental is “Location, location, location!” Union Square is Baltimore’s BEST location! The heart of the city offers diverse and lively events: cultural, social, dining, and sports – just to name a few. Appealing as these features are, living in the heart of the city is a very different thing – there are issues of traffic, restricted parking, cramped quarters and noise. That’s the beauty of having a home in historic Union Square. “Close to the heart” with none of the drawbacks, Union Square is a cosmopolitan mix of residential comfort and urban excitement. The Union Square/Hollins Market Historic District is in Southwest Baltimore (known to locals as SoWeBo). This historic neighborhood, one of Baltimore’s friendliest, is marked by pre- and post-Civil War architecture, period street lamps, brick sidewalks and stately row homes. An uncommon synergy prevails in the neighborhood as residents, both longtime and newly-arrived, work together through various committees and forums to enhance the area’s quality of life.
