More and more people are Moving UP… to UpperParkHeights in Baltimore, MD21215. There are some great condos in this area where people of all ages are discovering that UpperParkHeights has much to offer as a community.
Here you will find Sinai Hospital, where I was a former head nurse, with its long history of service. Founded in 1866 as the HebrewHospital and Asylum, Sinai has evolved into a Jewish-sponsored health care organization providing care for all people. It is a teaching hospital that counts among its faculty many nationally and internationally recognized experts in their fields, many of whom also hold teaching positions at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the University of Maryland School of Medicine.
In Upper Park Heights, you will also find thousands of people heading for the races, especially in the middle of May. That's when the Preakness Stakes – "The "Middle Jewel" of horse racing's triple crown – is run at Pimlico Race Track. Now surrounded by Baltimore, Pimlico was out in the country when it was built in 1870, and it remains the second oldest racetrack in the country after Saratoga, NY. You might remember that Flat Caleb visited Pimlico with me a couple of years ago.
Nearby Park Towers West is a good example of the condos available here. The Penthouse unit was one of my favorite listings – the original three bedroom, three bath condo was transformed into a 1 bedroom 2 1/2 bath luxury retreat with the best storage I've seen. A dream kitchen and custom built-ins throughout made this penthouse a delight.

The Park Heights Jewish Community Center (JCC) has been a hub of Baltimore's Jewish community for decades. The guiding principles of respecting diversity of thinking and expression are seen throughout the center's activities. It offers a gym, sauna, indoor and outdoor pools, and many camp programs. The Peggy and YaleGordonCenter for the Performing Arts and the Joseph and RebeccaMeyerhoffArtGallery art gallery offer a variety of cultural events. At the gallery, art is sometimes imported from Israel and often tied in with the holidays. The JCC also provides space for classes, meetings, and events. Classes aren't necessarily on Jewish themes; you can study writing, painting, Shakespeare, and more. The JCC also offers baby-sitting, clubs for young adults (including those with special needs) and parenting courses. It occasionally hosts literary readings in the evenings and has a film festival.
Just up the street from the JCC is the 6200 block of Park Heights Avenue, home to some of my favorite real estate in Baltimore. Whether you are looking for a cozy condo or a brick colonial, moving up to UpperParkHeightsis a great move.
