Although it's not managed by the CCA, Canton Waterfront Park is one of the most popular parks in Canton. Boasting eight acres of gorgeous harbor views, a mile of waterfront promenade, and plenty of green space, it's the place to be for picnics, festivals, and just having a relaxing good time.

You'll find WTMD's First Thursday concerts here, along with a Baltimore Water Taxi stop and the Korean War Memorial. It's a great place for viewing fireworks (especially over Fort McHenry), airshows, and the annual parade of tall ships that come into the harbor.

Because our amazing quality of life extends to furry four-legged friends! Bring yours to play, socialize, and enjoy some safe, off-leash time outdoors.

Located at 3221 Toone St., the park is open from dusk to dawn.

What is a dog park?

3. Shade, nearby parking, routine maintenance, and a notice board for dog park rules and related information.

4. Water source outside the park for drinking.

Named for the Hudson and Potomac rivers, Two Rivers Park is located at the intersection of S. Potomac and Hudson Streets. In 2003, Baltimore City considered selling the land to a developer who would have built houses on the site. The CCA, behind the leadership of Block Captain Randy Capone, worked together with City and State officials to save the land and raise money to improve it.

The park’s “birthday” is Sept. 16, 2006, the 6th Annual James W. Rouse Community Service Day, when people from Struever Bros. Eccles & Rouse (SBER) joined the community to install benches and plant trees.

To learn more about how you can help fundraise or volunteer for the park, please email as at parks@cantoncommunity.org.

Dypski Park is a 2.5-acre “pocket park” at 1213 S. Ellwood Ave. across Boston St. from the Canton Waterfront Park on the north side of the Du Burns Arena. After several years of planning, a renovation was completed in 2022. The revamped park features play equipment, seating, shade shelters, a fountain, a bike path, protective rubber safety surfacing, and more!
