Reply to comment by justforviewing8484 in Is it safe to walk down Baltimore Street from Paca all the way to Fells/Harbor East - like Central by DaleDuzit

From Baltimore and Paca I think you’d find that you feel safer, it’s better lit, and more foot traffic, to go to Pratt and follow the harbor to fells, as opposed to taking Baltimore, Lombard, or Pratt straight across. I’ve lived at Lombard and gay and currently live off Baltimore in upper fells, I personally don’t mind the Lombard or Baltimore walk, but from Caroline to President it feels a little sus because there’s not much activity around and the sidewalks are littered with broken glass. Adding that the Block is very sus at all hours; I’ve a run in for no reason at like 1pm on a Saturday and just avoid it now.

After President, Fawn Street is a nice option that cuts through Little Italy and goes by Ovenbird Bakery, which has delicious pastries. I've always felt fine on Stiles as well.

Honestly any amount of “out of the way” is worth it for OvenBird
