About

What began in the mid-1800’s as a neighborhood to those working in the shipping trades, Otterbein is a neighborhood that almost never was.  Surviving the great fire of 1904, a gradual decline in the 1950’s and 1960’s, then being taken over by the government for the future site of interstate 95, Otterbein is now one of Baltimore’s affluent neighborhoods.

Otterbein gets its Names from Phillip Otterbein, a German-born clergyman who was the founder of the United Brethren in Christ, a group that is a forerunner of today’s United Methodist Church. Today, the historic residential community is a suburban oasis located in downtown Baltimore, located a few blocks west of the Inner Harbor.
