Ten Hills, located between Gwynns Falls/Leakin Park and the Gwynns Falls Parkway corridor, is a residential and historic Baltimore neighborhood with curving hillside streets and stone-and-brick architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Ten Hills Shopping Center on North Franklintown Road, where a small strip of everyday storefronts meets steady local foot traffic. Tudor Revival and Colonial Revival homes, deep setbacks, and mature trees give the blocks a quiet, park-edge feel. The Gwynns Falls Trail and nearby park drives shape daily routines with long green views and river-valley air. The historic Gatehouse at the entrance to Leakin Park reads like a landmark punctuation mark on the landscape.
