Homewood Campus Tour
 |
Welcome to the online tour of the
Homewood campus.
Homewood is like a haven in the north Baltimore neighborhood of
Charles Village. It's a peaceful place of green grass,
wide-spreading trees, brick residence halls and classroom
buildings, and interconnecting walkways that combine to create a
comfortable country atmosphere in the heart of a major city. In
minutes you can easily find the action of Baltimore — by
bus,
light rail, your bike, or even on Hopkins' own shuttle bus
service — at the Inner Harbor, Oriole Park at Camden
Yards, the
National Aquarium, Hopkins' medical campus and the Peabody
Institute or one of many spots downtown. East of the Inner
Harbor, Fells Point — a part of town known for exciting
nightlife, fun shops, and ethnic restaurants — is a
weekend
favorite.
Visit some or all of Homewoods
buildings, landmarks, and gardens.
Make sure to stop by Gilman Hall, one of the
most photogenic buildings at Homewood and the first major
academic building on campus. Homewood Museum, a National
Historic Landmark, is also a must-see stop ... as is
the Bloomberg Center for Physics and Astronomy which, at 238,000
square feet, is the largest building yet constructed on the
Homewood campus. If you like, take a moment to learn about the
early history of the Homewood
campus. Whichever route you take, you are sure
to discover plenty of interesting facts about
the campus and its history.
Remember, however, there is
nothing quite like "the real thing" ... visiting the
Homewood campus in person.
To find out more about in-person visits, stop by the
Office of Undergraduate Admissions. There you will
find all you need to know about visiting the Homewood campus ...
a campus, by the way, that folks around here like to refer to
as "Home, Sweet Homewood".
