Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore is creating and managing a world-class destination at Baltimore’s Waterfront while inspiring a cleaner, greener future for our neighborhoods, streams, and harbor.

We’re a non-profit organization known for getting things done around the Waterfront. We oversee the Waterfront Management Authority (WMA), a business improvement district dedicated to improved maintenance, beautification, and visitor services for Baltimore’s signature asset—the Waterfront.

Our Clean, Green, Hospitality, and Safety teams work tirelessly to provide a friendly face, a welcoming hand, and a watchful eye. We ensure the Promenade is clean and shiny, and that the landscape is always lush and colorful.

We oversee the Waterfront parks, which provide places for family fun and activity, special events, and relaxation. We also manage free and low-cost attractions such as the Inner Harbor Ice Rink, Walter Sondheim Fountain, and award-winning Pierce’s Park.

In 2009, we set out to make the harbor swimmable and fishable by 2020. To accomplish this goal, we have several innovative efforts under way, including the installation of the Inner Harbor Water Wheel Trash Inceptor, the launch of the Greater Baltimore Oyster Partnership, planting floating wetlands, water quality monitoring for our annual report card, and much more.

Whether you live, work, or play at the Waterfront every day or are just visiting, know that our dedicated team behind the scenes is working hard to ensure your experience at Baltimore’s Waterfront is exceptional.
