Notable historic sites include the Hyattsville Armory and the Hyattsville Main Post Office. Hyattsville is a significant part of the Gateway Arts District, which also includes North Brentwood, Brentwood, and Mount Rainier along US Route 1.

Route 1 in Hyattsville has seen a revitalization, with craft brewers and distillers playing a significant role in repurposing older commercial properties.

The city of Hyattsville is known for its "A World Within Walking Distance" motto, reflecting its convenient and community-oriented feel.
Discover the historic charm, sophistication, and elegance of 4901 40th Place, a distinguished Colonial Revival home built circa 1870 by Hyattsville's founder, Christopher Hyatt. This residence showcases classic Italianate details, including cornice brackets and pendants. A welcoming trellis and stone path lead you and guests to this grand stunner with a welcoming 40-foot wrap-around concrete porch with a porch swing. Inside, you'll find a gracious center hall layout spread over 2990sf with warm wood floors flowing throughout. Abundant natural light through a plethora of windows fills this home, and all of the natural light is complemented by gorgeous vintage lighting providing ambiance in every room. The living room has a bay window, built-in bookcase, a lined wood-burning fireplace, and porch access through French doors.
