Fell's Point, Historic waterfront district in Southeast Baltimore, United States
The neighborhood extends along Baltimore Harbor with Belgian block streets lined by brick buildings and maritime structures from different centuries.
Founded in 1763 by William Fell, the area developed into a significant shipbuilding center that produced many Baltimore clipper ships during the War of 1812.
Frederick Douglass learned to read and write while working at the shipyards, and the district preserves over 300 buildings on the National Historic Register.
The district maintains a Walk Score of 99 with numerous transit options, including a 25-minute connection to BWI Airport and 10-minute access to Penn Station.
The Robert Long House, constructed in 1765, stands as the oldest remaining residence in Baltimore City and offers scheduled guided tours.
