Keep Up With the Buzz on Baltimore’s Waterfront!
Whether you live a few steps from the waterfront or take the occasional trip to visit, Harbor Weekly is your source for local news, community events, historical insights, food & wine recommendations, and neighborhood updates.
Come meet the people, see the establishments, and find out about the happenings that make the waterfront the place to be. Articles will release on The Harbor Beat blog each week covering the waterfront districts of Inner Harbor, Fells Point, Harbor Point, and Harbor East (and sometimes our next-door neighborhoods too!)
BGE Celebrates Earth Month with Oyster Gardening!
To celebrate Earth Month, we had a dedicated and diligent crew of volunteers from BGE join us at Downtown Sailing Center/Baltimore Museum of Industry to learn more about oyster gardening and help us prepare for this year’s season. Together, our volunteers fixed, cleaned, and made over 100 oyster habitats to help raise and restore the oyster population, did some shoreline trash pickup to prevent litter from entering the harbor, and took a museum tour of an old oyster canning factory to learn about the legacy and importance of oysters in Baltimore.
Bringing shade to the Inner Harbor with PNC & Waterfront Partnership

Waterfront Partnership and Morgan Stanley volunteers got out on a breezy spring afternoon to give the Lancaster Butterfly Waystation “The Chelsea Chop”! This springtime practice helps encourage new growth, extend the bloom times, and, in some cases, promote a second bloom. Read on to find out more!

Earth Week on the Waterfront: Wildlife Gardening at the Harbor
Waterfront Partnership led two groups of corporate volunteers for Earth Week, exploring urban ecology, habitat features, and ways to fight climate change through Wildlife Gardening!
Insect Hotels Draw Important Pollinators to the Waterfront
Wildlife gardening, or intentionally creating sustainable environments for surrounding creatures, is an important part of caring for our waterfront parks and gardens. One engaging way of doing this is by creating bee and insect hotels! These sculptural elements offer an inviting place to stay for certain insects, including bees.
Morgan Stanley Volunteers Install Insect Hotel at Harborplace
We engaged 60 volunteers from Morgan Stanley to complete projects at our conservation gardens in the Inner Harbor and Harbor Point. At the Lancaster canal, our volunteers weeded the 4800 sq foot conservation garden, and installed new nesting materials at our bee and insect hotel.
Earth Week Wildlife Gardening with Corporate Volunteers
Wildlife Gardening at the Inner Harbor means being intentional with the many green spaces that surround the Promenade and tending to them through a conservation lens. This week, we celebrated Earth Day by Wildlife Gardening thanks to more than 80 volunteers from Morgan Stanley, BGE, and Constellation.
