Hyattsville’s neighborhoods remind you of a small town, where you visit with your neighbors on each other’s front porches. The streets are lined with trees and hidden from major freeways, but you’re only a few minutes away from the Arts District and restaurants.
Within the Arts District, you’ll love the Palette apartments with chef-inspired kitchens, energy star appliances, and architectural accents like brick walls or glass door dividers. You’ll have access on-site to a cyber cafe, rooftop bar, and a dog park, as well as being with walking distance to several organic markets and restaurants. You could also opt for townhomes at Pulte, offering professional landscaping, two-car garages, and roof terraces, as well as first-class interior designs.
What to Do, Where to Go
Hyattsville is known for two things: its Gateway Arts District and sustainable living. Within the arts district, you’ll find Busboys and Poets, a gathering spot for local artists and authors to discuss their work. They also host events showcasing local authors in their bookstore. In addition, you’ll find restaurants like Franklin’s Restaurant, Brewery, and General Store, which still offers penny candy just like it did when it opened over 100 years ago and displays local artists work on the walls.
During the summer, Lane Manor Splash Park offers water activities for the entire family. At the 40-acre park, you’ll find a 25-meter pool, water slides, a children’s pool, and Red Cross swimming lessons.
