Stony Run (Baltimore)
Stony Run is a stream located in Baltimore, Maryland. It is a tributary of the Jones Falls, which eventually flows into the Inner Harbor and ultimately the Chesapeake Bay. The stream flows through residential neighborhoods in North Baltimore, including areas like Roland Park, Hampden, and Remington.
Stony Run is known for the walking and biking path that parallels much of its course, offering a greenway and recreational space for city residents. The Stony Run Trail provides a connection between neighborhoods and access to Wyman Park and Johns Hopkins University.
Efforts have been made over the years to improve the water quality of Stony Run, which has been impacted by stormwater runoff and pollution from urban development. These efforts include stream restoration projects, the installation of stormwater management infrastructure, and community engagement initiatives. The stream's health and its surrounding parkland contribute to the environmental and recreational resources available to Baltimore City.
