erwyn is one of the 14 small
neighborhoods that make up College
Park. It is located one mile north of
the University of Maryland. Berwyns boundaries include Greenbelt Road on the
north, the railroad tracks on the east,
Route 1 (Baltimore Boulevard) on the west
and another neighborhood, Lakeland, to
the south. Composed of approximately
450 households, Berwyn also is home to
Smile Herb Shop, Berwyn Cafι, several
businesses at the east end of Berwyn Road,
and two churches. The neighborhood is
bisected by a bike path that runs the
length of College Park and connects to
other area bike trails. All of this is built
around a well used neighborhood
playground in the center. The friendly
residents of the active, bustling
neighborhood invite you to enjoy living
here as much as they do. We suggest you
get acquainted with your neighbors and
involved in community life by attending Civic Association meetings and
volunteering to help out with community
activities. You will love the sense of
belonging that comes with living here.
