Fell's Point is a historic waterfront neighborhood in the southeastern area of the City of Baltimore, Maryland. It was established around 1763 and is located along the north shore of the Baltimore Harbor and the Northwest Branch of the Patapsco River. The area features many shops, including antique stores, restaurants, coffee bars, music stores, a municipal markethouse with individual stalls, and over 120 pubs. Located just east of the famous Inner Harbor adjacent to Baltimore's downtown central business district and the Jones Falls stream , Fell's Point has a maritime past and the air of a seafaring town. It also has the greatest concentration of drinking establishments and restaurants in the city. The neighborhood has also been historically the home of large immigrant populations of Germans, Polish, and other East European nationalities such as the Ukrainians, Russians, Czech/Bohemians, and the Slovaks, along with one of the earliest immigrants, the Irish, throughout its 250-year-old history. Since the 1970s, a steadily increasing number of middle to upper middle income residents has moved into the area, restoring and preserving historic homes and businesses. Upper Fell's Point to the north along Broadway has gained a sizable Hispanic population, made up primarily of recent waves since the 1980s of Mexican and Central American immigrants and is sometimes now called Spanish Town. This waterfront community is a tourist destination and can be reached by water taxi barges, expressway/interstate highways, local streets and boulevards and several municipal/state transit bus lines. Fell's Point is one of several areas in and around Baltimore that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, , the first designated from Maryland, and is one of the first registered historic districts in the United States to combine two separate waterfront communities .
