Charles Street CorridorEast
and south of the Johns Hopkins University Homewood campus. The Charles Street
Corridor and Charles Village is a neighborhood located in the
north-central area of Baltimore. It is a middle-class area with many
single-family homes that is in proximity to many of Baltimore's
urban amenities. The area was first developed as a streetcar suburb
in the early 20th century, and was then known as Peabody Heights;
the moniker Charles Village, derived from Charles St., the
area's major north-south corridor, was coined in the 1970s as the
beginning of a process of conceptually grouping a large and somewhat
heterogeneous area. This area contains over 14,000 people and 700
businesses.
