Charm City Skatepark in Baltimore was opened in 1994, so 28 years now. I’m guessing not quite as old as SPoT but close
Charm City was a shop with a mini ramp before the park opened. The park didn't open until about 2002. Still a decent grip of time, and still mind boggling he's able to keep that spot afloat.
i knew that sounded wrong when I Googled it. I remember they had both locations for a while. The shop on Eastern Ave with the miniramp and whatnot in the basement (I'm guessing that location was opened in '94?) was where I bought my first real skateboard (Planet Earth Ed Selego deck), probably right around the time they were opening up the park in its current location over off O'Donnell St. Some good times at both those spots as a young buck. Would take the bus all the way down there from Hampden with the homies on a Saturday morning and skate all day. Haven't lived in Baltimore in over 10 years but I'm always impressed to see they're still going when they pop up on my IG feed.
