1957 Map of Curtis Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Industrial expansion and residential growth define the southern reaches of Baltimore and northern Anne Arundel County in the late 1950s. The shoreline along Curtis Bay and the Patapsco River is dominated by massive infrastructure, including the Curtis Bay Army Ordnance Depot, the U S Quarantine Sta, and the extensive tracks of the Baltimore and Ohio RR. These facilities sit adjacent to established neighborhoods like Brooklyn and Fairfield, illustrating the dense proximity of post-war industry and housing.
