Right at the heart of "Pigtown" is a re-purposed 1870's church hosting all kinds of fun things to do that require lots of space. There's dancing at many of their special events, as well as EVERY Monday and Friday night – it's not always easy to find something to do on Monday nights in most cities. Their regular Monday and Friday dances go on as late you want to stay. No experience or partner required. Their dance nights highlight several styles of swing dancing, including moves that originated in Baltimore. After much effort from Mobtown Ballroom, they've secured a full liquor license. Among other things, they had to get a law changed that prohibited liquor from being sold within 300 feet of a church!

- Dance Clubs, Live Music: "Get there plenty early to secure a nearby parking space. You can ask a staffer to walk you back."
- Best for Dance Clubs Because: Before each dance night – for a nominal additional cover charge – they have swing dance lessons in West Coast, Lindy Hop and East Coast styles.
- Best for Live Music Because: With what is called the finest dance floor on the East Coast and beautiful surroundings, this is a fun, intimate place to hear music.
