Morrel Park

Where once cotton and tobacco grew, later trolley tracks ran and today Morrell Park is some of the nicest, most affordable housing in Baltimore. Known for its row house and well maintained single family homes, the neighborhood is popular with those wanting to live in Baltimore while working in Washington DC.
Morrell Park is a friendly neighborhood with local restaurants and businesses, many of which have been owned by the same families for years. In fact, Bessie’s Cleaners has been family owned and operated for more than 50 years. There are also several good schools nearby, though only one public elementary/middle school in the actual neighborhood. The three local churches are well established and popular with residents, is the local recreation center.
The residents association continues to work hard to keep Morrell a pleasant place to live. They support the local youth athletics programs and help maintain the neighborhood playground. They are also always working to improve facilities and recreational opportunities of the area’s residents. There is some talk right now of a new recreational center that may even include an indoor swimming pool. This will likely be very popular during the many cold months of the year when families are looking for a place to go to blow off a little steam and recover from cabin fever.
