Ellwood Park / Monument

Ellwood Park / Monument is a neighborhood located in the east region of Baltimore. East Monument Street, North Linwood Street, East Fayette Street and North Dean Street generally form the borders of the neighborhood. The neighborhood is a mix of both residential and commercial uses. Homes here are typically attached single-family row style homes.

Dedicated green space is limited here although Elwood Park is located here. There are a number of restaurants within the neighborhood, but most are fast food or carry out type of establishments, which are mainly found along the Pulaski Highway (Route 40). The neighborhood does not have schools or places to worship. Residents desiring to utilize public transportation will find numerous bus stops located throughout the neighborhood. Shopping options are limited, although there are several neighborhood stores offering basic items.


Like many neighborhoods in large cities, crimes against people and property can occur at any time and crime rates can vary from street to street and day to day. As always, check recent crime statistics to make an informed decision on any neighborhood you are considering living in or visiting.

I would not like to live here myself, as I enjoy neighborhoods that have more eating and shopping alternatives, you may want to check it out to see if it meets your needs.
