Location: Baltimore Streetcar Museum

*Falls Road is closed north of the BSM so we will have to access it from Maryland Avenue:

DIRECTIONS FROM THE NORTH:

Take I-83 (Jones Falls Expressway) south into Baltimore City;

Exit at North Avenue;

Turn left onto North Avenue;

Go several blocks and turn right onto Maryland Avenue;

Go one block and turn right onto Lafayette Avenue;

Go one short block and turn right onto Falls Road. You will see barricades but there is room to proceed and there is a sign indicating the road is open for Streetcar Museum access only.

DIRECTIONS FROM OTHER POINTS:

Take North Avenue to Maryland Avenue (at the 100 block West North Avenue) and proceed south and continue as above.
