1943 Map of Baltimore
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
Baltimore and its surrounding countryside are captured during the mid-war period, revealing a dense urban core transitioning into rural industrial and farming landscapes. The city's maritime and military infrastructure is prominent along the Patapsco River, anchored by the Fort McHenry National Mon and industrial landmarks like Ashland Furnace. The map traces the early suburban expansion along major arteries like York Road and Falls Road, while north of the city, the Loch Raven Reservoir and Chestnut Ridge dominate the terrain. Genealogists can locate family names in outlying settlements like Blenheim and Cockeysville, or trace ancestral resting places at Loudon Park National Cem. This military-origin survey provides a precise view of the city's rail-heavy economy, dominated by the Baltimore and Ohio RR and Pennsylvania RR corridors that fueled the region's growth.
