Waverly Main Street Historic District, an area listed in the National Register of Historic Places, includes all of the Waverly neighborhood, and the portion of Better Waverly neighborhood located between Greenmount Avenue and Ellerslie Avenue. The Waverly neighborhood is also referred to as "Waverly-north" to distinguish it from the area of the historic district overlapping Better Waverly.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Better Waverly Map )

==History==

The area currently known as Waverly was previously a tiny village along York Road known as Huntingdon. As wealthy residents began building summer cottages there in the late 19th century, a firehouse, town hall and post office were added to the community. To avoid confusion with other places using the Huntingdon name, this postal village was named
for Sir Walter Scott's novel, ''Waverly''.〔
Baltimore schoolteacher and poet Lizette Woodworth Reese's ''Waverly, A Victorian Village'' (1929) uses poetry and anecdotal prose to depict the neighborhood around the start of the 20th century. The frontispiece from this volume, a woodcut of a fruit tree, can be seen at the entrance to the Waverly branch public library.
Another notable Waverly resident was Major Venable, a lawyer who wrote a standard legal textbook and dedicated much of his personal time to improving Baltimore's public parks. Venable Street is named after him (Baltimore Sun).
Architecture is primarily row houses and wood Victorian single-family homes. Some of the latter are in a historic district designated by the city's Center for Historic and Architectural Preservation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CHAP )
