From Little Bohemia to Madison-Eastend

The community of Madison-Eastend is a small neighborhood in East Baltimore, bordered to the north by the Amtrak railway and to the south by East Monument Street. Formerly known as “Little Bohemia,” the neighborhood was a hub in the early 19th century for Czech immigrants seeking work opportunities. Once a highly industrialized area, it’s now a densely populated residential community undergoing revitalization in the form of renovated homes and dedicated nonprofit organizations.

Recent remodels and investment properties

Mostly constructed in the early 20th century, red brick row homes dominate Madison-Eastend, many of which are considered investment properties. Priced between $30,000 and $80,000, these two-story homes require a complete renovation prior to move-in. Recently remodeled and renovated spaces typically range between $100,000 and $250,000. Homes like these are becoming more frequent, while current residents beautify their own entryways with painted walls and front steps. Street parking is expected, but front lawns aren’t. Most homes do offer a cemented backyard space, however, where residents can grow potted plants or simply store their waste bins.

No-cost associate degree at P-TECH

Local students attend Baltimore City Public Schools, with most beginning at Fort Worthington Elementary/Middle School. A few, however, are zoned for Tench Tilghman Elementary/Middle School, as the boundary line divides Madison-Eastend. Both institutions enroll kindergarten through eighth grade and receive a C-minus on Niche. Families are offered a choice regarding high school, though many opt for Paul Laurence Dunbar High, which earns a C on Niche. Also known as P-TECH, it’s a specialized STEM school offering four-to-six-year programs for a diploma and/or a no-cost associate degree.

Green space at Bocek and Patterson

The community is home to Frank C. Bocek Park, a wide-open field where community sports leagues practice and play. Basketball and tennis courts are ideal for casual pick-up games, while unoccupied green space is ideal for dog owners. Patterson Park is only about a mile south, where 133 acres of greenery attract visitors from around the city. The Patterson Boat Lake has been around for ages, a landmark where many Baltimoreans claim to have caught their first fish. Mature trees compliment the wetlands, community garden, swimming pool and seasonal ice rink.

Relying on the MTA Bus and Light RailLink

The Johns Hopkins Medical campus is a major employer in the area, including Madison-Eastend, which sits about a mile east. This also serves as the neighborhood’s closest hospital and emergency room. The city’s downtown scene is just 3 miles west on Orleans Street, with bus stops available along East Madison Street, North Patterson Park Avenue and North Linwood Avenue. Baltimore Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport is a 13-mile commute, accessible via CityLink bus or light rail if residents prefer not to drive. The neighborhood overall is quite walkable, and thanks to the city’s public transportation many locals opt out of using their personal vehicles.

Bus stops can be found on every street in Madison-Eastend.

Community support and initiatives

Compared to the city’s other residential enclaves, Madison-Eastend suffers disproportionately from illnesses like cancer and HIV/AIDS. Contamination from nearby factories and refineries has led to pollution and even a brownfield in the area. However, Madison-Eastend benefits from strong participation with the Historic East Baltimore Community Action Coalition (HEBCAC). A local nonprofit organization, HEBCAC “honors history and fosters strength, diversity and transformation” through career and housing services for youth, as well as substance abuse and recovery programs. Another community resource is the Eastside Career Center on East Madison Street. Coined as Baltimore’s One-Stop Career Center, this local resource is open weekly to the public and offers a variety of employment resources to assist individuals in supporting themselves and their family members.
