Bound by Eastern Avenue, Conkling Street, the waters of the Patapsco River, and Chester Street, the Baltimore City neighborhood of Canton is home to nearly 11,000 people. Residents of this neighborhood benefit from its convenient location, rich history, wide variety of housing options, and plentiful amenities along with so much more. A water lover´s community, Canton offers beautiful views of the harbor and a peaceful environment for all ages to enjoy.
In the heart of Canton you will find O´Donnell Square, the town´s social hub made up of one-of-a-kind shops, restaurants for every taste and bars and taverns that provide for an exciting nightlife. Also located in O´Donnell Square is the Enoch Pratt Free Library, which has been in operation since 1886!
Easily accessible by water taxi is Baltimore´s Inner Harbor and other sites and neighborhoods along the waterfront. The Canton Waterfront parks provide residents with great place to relax and enjoy the view, access to boat launches and several marinas. Nearby Patterson Park and the DuBurns Soccer Arena offer the more active residents of Canton opportunities to maintain their lifestyles. Popular among young adults, this growing waterfront community is very much full of life.
 Playing an important role in Baltimore´s history, the seemingly simple community of Canton was where the city´s major industrialization began with the sale of land, and therefore, abundant job opportunities for blue-collar workers in the late 1800s. By the turn of the century, industry moved out and waterfront housing began to develop. Today, residents enjoy a wide range of homes for sale including two and three-story row homes, new townhouses and waterfront condos. Despite development, many of the buildings and structures of the past remain intact through these rehabilitated housing options that residents are now offered.
The tremendously rejuvenated neighborhood and Canton real estate market combined with its scenic position on the water gives all of its residents a vivacious atmosphere to take pleasure in. The opportunities and social scene that Canton once bestowed upon the diverse community of long ago still continue to exist today despite its rapid growth.
