Now in its 12th year, Doors Open Baltimore, hosted by Baltimore Architecture Foundation, is an annual city-wide celebration honoring Baltimore’s diverse cultural tapestry by highlighting its vibrant neighborhoods, captivating architecture, and distinctive spaces that contribute to the city’s charm. Many of the buildings participating in this year’s Doors Open Baltimore are examples of adaptive reuse, the renovation and recycling of an existing structure to serve a new function.
This year’s city-wide celebration will kick off on October 2nd at The Peale with a casual evening of storytelling showcasing a variety of voices, perspectives, and special places in Baltimore. Doors Open will feature guided tours throughout October beginning on October 4th and free open houses on Saturday, October 25th.
In addition to neighborhood walking tours, tours include the transformed former Greyhound bus terminal on Howard Street and the newly renovated Justice Thurgood Marshall Amenity Center at PS 103 in West Baltimore. Over 40 Open House sites include the newly opened Library 19 in Fells Point and The Compound artists’ space in East Baltimore Midway.
