A largely residential, middle-class area, Woodberry is a historic community bordered on the north by Cold Spring Lane, on the south by Druid Hill Park, on the west by Greenspring Avenue, and on the east by the Jones Falls Expressway and the Jones Falls.

A third, shorter tower also handles communications for various municipal service agencies of the City of Baltimore (e.g., police, fire, public works).

Five television stations also have their broadcasting studios located on TV Hill: WJZ-TV, located at the end of Malden Avenue and to the west of the towers; the WBAL Building (which is also home to WIYY and WBAL radio), on Hooper Avenue to the northeast; and WBFF/WNUV (and WUTB), which share facilities on West 41st Street, just southeast of the towers.

Some of the first housing situated in what is now Television Hill was built by David Carroll for his textile mill workers.

[8] Though there are the occasional apartment buildings, much of Woodberry's housing stock consists of two- and three-story rowhouses built in the early 20th century.
