Upper Park Heights is the densest part of Baltimore’s Orthodox community. Along Park Heights Avenue, Congregation Shearith Israel β€” the Glen Avenue Shul β€” Tiferes Yisroel, Agudath Israel of Baltimore, B’nai Jacob Shaarei Zion and a run of chassidish and Sephardic shuls sit within a few blocks of each other, and Clarks Lane adds Chabad of Park Heights, Ohr HaChaim and the Mikvah of Baltimore.
