115 Baltimore St

Upper Albany, located on the northeast side of Hartford, features architecture from the early 20th century. Newcomers looking for rentals find charming two-family homes complete with stained-glass windows, dormers, and wraparound porches among newer, well-appointed digs. Tall shade trees line the streets with many fenced front yards.

Animal lovers find pet supplies and finely-crafted equestrian equipment at the Smith-Worthington Saddlery Company, established in 1794. The neighborhood enjoys attending performances at the University of Hartford's Mort & Irma Handel Performing Arts Center, where attendees imbibe in light fare and specialty coffees at the Backstage Cafe following a play or recital. Nestled among a wooded oasis of uncommon beauty, Upper Albany residents relax with a round or two of golf at the Keney Park 18-hole course. Foodies rejoice in and rave about the island-style stuffed pastry and jerk chicken at Golden Krust Caribbean Bakery & Grill.
