Charles Village
This elegant Federal-period mansion was once the home of Charles Carroll Jr., son of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. Deeded to Johns Hopkins University in 1902, the house served as faculty club and offices before being fully restored to its 1801 grandeur (it's one of the finest examples of the neoclassical architecture of the period).
