About the Location

Historical Significance

O'Donnell Square Park is a small public space located in the heart of Baltimore's Canton neighborhood. Named after Captain John O'Donnell, who founded the Canton area as a plantation in the late 18th century, the park serves as a focal point for the community.

The park sits at the center of O'Donnell Square, surrounded by a mix of residential housing and businesses. The square is known for its historical significance and serves as a gathering place for local residents and visitors.

Park Features

The park's size is modest, described as being between a basketball court and a football field in area. It features open green spaces with some shaded areas provided by trees.

O'Donnell Square Park is integrated into the urban fabric of Canton, with restaurants, bars, and shops lining the surrounding streets. This creates a lively atmosphere, especially in the evenings when the area becomes a popular spot for nightlife activities.

The park itself provides a contrasting quiet space within this bustling urban setting. It is maintained by Baltimore City Recreation and Parks department.
