Wimpy-skippys! They sound ridiculous, but they are pepperoni/spinach calzones that are better than any calzone you've every had. Also make good pizza and right near Pastiche for dessert. Get take-out and go sit on the fountain in the nearby square for a perfect Federal Hill experience.

A wide range of restaurants and outdoor cafes (mostly Italian). Everything from simple home meals (Angelo's) to handmade pasta, to fancy candlelit dinners. Venda Ravioli is a great market to check out! There is usually live music on weekend summer nights near the big fountain.

Nice playground for the kids, big green areas for picnics, frisbee, etc. Near a food plaza and across the street from an ice cream shop. At the end of Blackstone Boulevard- a lovely place to walk/bike/exercise. Has a farmer's and art market on Saturday mornings in the warm months.
