Baltimore covers a land area of 209.3 sq km (80.8 sq mi). The older sections of Baltimore are laid out in a grid pattern superimposed on a radial pattern of principal arteries. The city is characterized by row houses, most of which are brick, and by winding, tree-lined streets with freestanding homes, most of which are in the outlying sections. Baltimore is a city of greenery, with about 2,600 hectares (about 6,400 acres) of land devoted to parks.Microsoft® Encarta® Online Encyclopedia 2001
