Keswick

Lee Gerstein

What brought you to Baltimore?

I originally came to Baltimore as I earned my undergraduate degree in Towson and loved the area so much that I chose to stay after graduation. I had close friends who lived in the Keswick neighborhood and it was always on my radar. When the time came for my wife and I to buy our house, we were lucky that there were a few openings in that neighborhood and we've lived in Keswick since 2018.

What do you love most about this neighborhood?

The neighborhood offers the walkability and convenience of being in the city while also making it feel like a separate residential neighborhood (lots of greenery and decent sized homes with yards). There also is a real sense of community in Keswick, not only in friendly neighbors, but a few traditional events that happen each year that bring everyone together.

What would you tell someone considering this neighborhood?

If you want to live in Baltimore City, but want a little more space than living downtown; this is the way to go. It's the best of both worlds.
