Roland Park may be going on a road diet.

A rare opportunity to live in one of Baltimore’s truly unique homes… a 124 year old church in the Evergreen neighborhood of Roland Park. Decommissioned in the sixties then home and studio for a prominent local sculptor, this craftsman style gem has been lovingly cared for over the last five years with major repair, recovery and restoration to the structure and major systems as well as the original details. All of the heavy lifting has been done.
Tuxedo Pharmacy on Roland Avenue has been serving customers from around Baltimore since 1936. Harold Davidov, 79, and his brother, Arnold, have spent their lives there, even growing up in the apartments located above the storefront.
On Jan. 8, they’ll be closing up shop after just over 82 years in business.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. And while you are making that list (and checking it twice), make sure to stop over at the Village of Cross Keys. Minutes from downtown, Cross Keys offers some of Baltimore’s best shopping with local boutiques, as well as wonderful national retailers, tasty dining options and a Radisson hotel (a perfect spot for out-of-town family). Putting the charm in Charm City, the Village of Cross Keys has a little something for everyone. You’ll be checking off that list in no time and enjoying a hot toddy at one of the cafes!
Shopping local during the holiday season is always a great idea. Our first stop on our local shopping excursion is Wyndhurst Station. Originally serving as a station house for the former Maryland and Pennsylvania Railroad, Wyndhurst Station, located in Roland Park, was redeveloped and converted into a charming boutique retail building. The businesses and services have become staples for neighborhood residents and the broader community alike. With free parking and a leafy, country-like setting, it provides for a special and unique Baltimore City shopping or work experience.
The autumnal season is upon us and the shops in the Village of Cross Keys are busy welcoming fall with stylish seasonal fashions, all-occasion gifts and home decorating options alike. We at Fishbowl treated ourselves to a shopping trip this week to see what was new in the village. As always, we were not disappointed.
When Baltimore’s Department of Transportation asked the public to weigh in on five options for a redesign of the much-toiled-over Roland Avenue cycle track, it created a survey and said it would announce the winning choice by July 19.
Thursday night’s public meeting concerning the Department of Transportation’s planned reworking of the Roland Park cycle track left residents with five options to consider and ended quietly, with no confrontations or shouting matches.
