About this map

Large federal research and military installations dominate the landscape between Beltsville and White Oak, highlighting the expansion of government infrastructure in the post-war era. The sprawling US Dept of Agriculture Research Center and the US Naval Ordnance Laboratory occupy significant tracts of land, surrounded by rapidly developing residential subdivisions like Hollywood Park and Fairview Estates. This period of growth is further evidenced by the extensive network of newly charted schools, including High Point High Sch and Regina High Sch, which serve the burgeoning suburban population near the Capital Beltway.
