Western District, located between Gwynns Falls/Leakin Park and Downtown Baltimore, is a historic and residential Baltimore neighborhood with rowhouse blocks and broad parkland edges. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates along West Baltimore Street near the Upton Metro Station, where corner carryouts, barbershops, and small storefronts set a street-level rhythm. Landmark anchors include the Edgar Allan Poe House & Museum, the B&O Railroad Museum, and the Hippodrome Theatre. Brick stoops and painted cornices define many blocks, while larger civic buildings punctuate major corridors. Trails and wooded slopes at Gwynns Falls offer a green counterpoint to the tight street grid. Transit lines and arterials connect daily routines to jobs, arts, and stadium events.

The purpose of TOD Transit-Oriented Development Zoning Districts is to encourage the location of uses and forms of development conducive to increased transit usage. These Districts are intended to promote new, well-integrated residential and commercial development around transit stations, to ensure that new development occurs in the form of compatible, higher density, transit-friendly design in close proximity to transit systems, to encourage a pedestrian-orientation in new development, to decrease reliance on motor vehicles by increasing transit uses, and to encourage a mix of buildings and activities that provides settings for social interaction and active community life.; The TOD-1 Transit-Oriented Development District is characterized by a more restrictive height and a limited retail use mix.
