Middle East is a neighborhood in the heart of East Baltimore, Maryland. It is patrolled by the Baltimore Police Department's Eastern District. It is the site of a conflict between residents and the city's plans for creating a biotech park to serve nearby Johns Hopkins Medical Center. The neighborhood has suffered from extensive urban decay and housing abandonment, crime, and racial rioting. Its residents are mainly lower income African Americans; the neighborhood was a filming location for the Baltimore-based HBO drama ''The Wire''. Middle East is also noteworthy as being a location for the filming of scenes of the television series ''Homicide: Life on the Street'' and the 1991 film ''Homicide'' (no relation to the TV series) featuring Joe Mantegna. The neighborhood formerly had a Czech-American majority and is home to St. Wenceslaus Church, an historically Czech parish that is now majority African-American. The Middle East neighborhood and surrounding areas were then known colloquially as "Little Bohemia." ==Location==
