The Science + Technology Park at Johns Hopkins anchors a mixed-use redevelopment of 88 acres adjacent to the Johns Hopkins University medical campus and hospital in East Baltimore. Centered on the new 5.5-acre Eager Park, this effort includes new commercial lab and office space, retail, for-sale and rental housing and a new K-8 public school.
Opened in 2006, more than 40 life science companies and research institutions have located here to partner with Johns Hopkins in commercializing scientific discovery. In addition, 350 residential units and a 350-unit graduate student housing building are occupied. Residents and employees working around Eager Park have priority to send their children to the new K-8 Henderson Hopkins School.
Location
Immediately north of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Bloomberg School of Public Health and School of Nursing campus in East Baltimore, the site, one mile east of Downtown and the Inner Harbor, is served by the Metro, Charm City Circulator and local bus service.
