Located in the neighborhood of Jonestown. It comprises the area bound by Front Street, High Street and the Jones Falls on down to about Pratt Street. Some of it merged with Baltimore Town to form the core of what is now Baltimore City, but while Baltimore Town and Fells Point where busy port centers, Jonestown was the home of the wealthiest people of the era, who desired a life away from the hustle and bustle of horse-drawn carriages. The Charles Caroll Mansion, the McKim Free School, the Old Town Meeting House, and the Lloyd Street Synagogue, stand as testimony to these bygone days. In the 1820s and 30s the original settlers spread away from the center of the city and thus Jonestown began its new role as a place to make a new start. It has served as a first generation neighborhood for Italians, Irish and Jews since the 1840s. Father Lawrence's church. St. Vincent de Paul, has served the Jonestown community since that time. Tourist attractions -- the Shot Tower and the Flag House, among others -- continue to mark the community.
