Live surrounded by the elegance of yesterday in the heart of Baltimore's cultural district - The Standard in Mount Vernon. Just steps away from the Walters Art Gallery, the Lyric Opera House, Meyerhoff Symphony Hall and the Inner Harbor, The Standard offers luxury living in one of the city's most treasured landmark buildings.

Originally developed by the Rockefeller family, the building evokes the era of the 1920's with impressive limestone colonnades, bronze trim and a gracious lobby detailed in marble and bronze. The Standard, once known as The Standard Oil Building and listed individually in the National Register of Historical Places, has been restored to capture the aura of its original splendor. Southern Management has designed each residence to fit individual tastes, from studios, one and two-bedroom luxury apartment homes and lofts with towering ceilings, premium finishes and hardware, and incredible views of the Inner Harbor, downtown Baltimore and Chesapeake Bay.

The Standard is ideally located in the historic district of Mount Vernon, directly across the street from Preston Gardens. The best of what the city has to offer can be found just outside The Standard's front door. Baltimore's finest restaurants, arts venues and shopping districts are all within walking distance.

For those who want the best of yesterday in a lively, urban setting - The Standard truly is the best of both worlds.
