East Baltimore Midway is a neighborhood in the Eastern district of Baltimore, Maryland. Its boundaries are the south side of 25th Street, the east side of Greenmount Avenue, the west side of Harford Road, and the north side of North Avenue.
The neighborhood lies East of Barclay, North of Oliver, South of Coldstream-Homestead-Montebello, and West of Clifton Park.

The neighborhood was affected by the Baltimore riot of 1968. Its residents are largely poor and working-class African Americans.
