Reservoir Hill Garden & Home Tour


Historic Reservoir Hill Garden and Home Tour

The 19th annual Reservoir Hill Garden and Home Tour will take place Saturday June 8th and Sunday June 9th, 2013, 11:00am - 4:00pm (gardens and homes open until 5:00 p.m.).  Tickets ($15) available at the information booth at the Intersection of Park Avenue and Reservoir Street on tour days.

Have you noticed flowering trees and lush vines poking over an alley fence and wondered what else is growing on the other side?  Are you curious about what’s behind the brick facade and stately wooden trim of a historic row house?  Follow a self-guided tour through some of the colorful gardens and restored homes of Reservoir Hill to learn about gardening in the city and the fascinating history of this vibrant Baltimore neighborhood.

Historic maps and pictures of the neighborhood will be on display and visitors will have a chance to meet author Kelly Dale Terrill at a book signing for Reservoir Hill, his newly published book on the area.  

The Garden and Home tour is sponsored by neighborhood associations: Bolton Park Neighbors, 501(c)(3) and the Historic Mt. Royal Terrace Association  501(c)(3) with additional support from Healthy Neighborhoods. For more information: email - HistoricResHillTour@gmail.com, phone - 443-424-2276 or 410-383-8535.
