Our Neighborhood

Welcome to the Cylburn Community Association website. Cylburn is a
neighborhood in northwest Baltimore City, Maryland.

The area is bordered by Burnet Road
on the west, Lamar Blvd on the east, 45th Street on the south and Justin Lane on
the north.

The City of Austin annexed most of the neighborhood in 1946 and
purchased the land next to Brentwood Elementary to establish the neighborhood's
Brentwood Park in 1951. Running through the middle of the area is a tree-lined
street named Arroyo Seco which follows a creek of the same name. This is the
site of an annual holiday luminaria presentation.

Brentwood is now a
trendy and popular area that is home to gorgeous tree-lined streets and
established homes. Many of the homes are bungalow style homes, normally one
story, and have a low to medium pitched roof and simple, rectangular shapes.
Many were originally two bedrooms and were purchased by GIs who wanted to start
families following WWII. The combination of original residents who never left
the 'hood and a growing number of young professsionals have built a strong
community which fits perfectly with the style of Austin.
