No neighborhood says Bawlmer quite like north Baltimore' s Hampden, a 19th-century blue-collar mill town that has evolved into the epicenter of hipster Baltimore kitsch. Made famous for its starring role in John Waters' films and long known as the place where everybody calls you hon, Hampden centers on 36th Street known to locals simply as the Avenue. You'll find original shops and an eccentric array of cafes mingling with the barber shops and pharmacies that keep this authentic, hardworking neighborhood real.
