About Standard

HomeApartments in BaltimoreMount Vernon Standard

Originally developed by the Rockefeller family, the building evokes the era of the 1920's with impressive limestone colonnades, bronze trim and a gracious lobby detailed in marble and bronze. The Standard, once known as The Standard Oil Building and listed individually in the National Register of Historical Places, has been restored to capture the aura of its original splendor. Southern Management has designed each residence to fit individual tastes, from studios, one and two-bedroom luxury apartment homes and lofts with towering ceilings, premium finishes and hardware, and incredible views of the Inner Harbor, downtown Baltimore and Chesapeake Bay.
