Located in the heart of historic Hamilton, on Harford Road just south of Northern Parkway, the Hamilton Branch serves Northeast Baltimore including the communities of Hamilton, Gardenville, Lauraville, and North Harford Road.

The original Hamilton branch building opened at Hamilton and Richard Avenues in December 1920. After a World War II housing boom, a larger building was constructed and opened in January 1959. Read more Pratt location history.
