Joseph Lee Neighborhood Baltimore
Joseph Lee neighborhood is the residential part of Johns Hopkins Bayview Hospital, in Baltimore, Maryland, occasionally described the “A to K” or “ABC neighborhood” seeing as all of the north-south streets is arranged in alphabetical order. (Anglesea, Bonsal, Cornwall, Drew, Elrino, Folcroft, Gusryan, Hornel, Imla, Joplin, and Kane.)
Joseph Lee neighborhood is a part of the larger Bayview or Hopkins Bayview neighborhood and borders the Greektown neighborhood.
Most of the homes in the neighborhood are customary Baltimore row homes. The earliest homes built in the 1920s are on the western section of the neighborhood and normally have three bedrooms. The homes in the eastern portion, built in the 1950s, characteristically have two bedrooms. Although not as inexhaustible as Highlandtown, some homes have formstone fronts made popular in the 1940s. The neighborhood is also identified for its azalea bushes that line some of the streets.
Numerous expansion projects in and around the neighborhood have been ongoing in recent years to develop the look and value of the community. In early 2006, a former Anchor Fence plant and headquarters was redeveloped into “Anchor Square” an open air shopping center. what’s more in 2006, a new 563,000-square-foot (52,300 m2) biomedical research facility opened on the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center campus to house the National Institutes on Aging and Drug Abuse. An urgent care center, Patient First, opened on the Bayview campus in 2007. In late 2007, a “Streetscape” project was kicked off to beautify and improve the road and sidewalks of Eastern Avenue.
