About this map

Pimlico Racetrack and the sprawling grounds of Druid Hill Park anchor this detailed study of the city's western reach during the post-war expansion of the mid-1950s. The landscape is a dense assembly of institutional and religious history, featuring the massive Cathedral Cemetery and the Spring Grove State Hospital complex. This era captures the intricate residential patterns of neighborhoods like Roland Park, Pikesville, and Catonsville Manor as they integrated with the city's expanding educational and medical infrastructure.
