I recently got a job in Baltimore and needed some help on housing and stuff. 
1) I plan to stay in 15 Charles Plaza, 21201. I dont have a car so
this is just near to my office. The one bedrooms are for $850
including utilities. Can anyone search a better place in that area,
with the same rent or little less. I plan to take car latter, so would
like the house to be in downtown Baltimore only.
2) Any good references, where I can get 2nd hand Sofas, other basic house needs.

I know its a very broad question, but any suggestion is always
welcome. Please help asap, as I am moving in next 2 days.

Thanks

Craigslist.com is a great source for furniture. They also have rentals
listed. The furniture selection is bigger in the Washington DC list so
check that one after Baltimore
