1949 Map of Edgewood

About this map

The Army Chemical Center and its surrounding laboratory and testing grounds dominate this coastal landscape of Harford County. The mid-century development of Edgewood and Edgewood Heights is clearly visible, showing the residential expansion supporting the nearby military installations. This 1949 survey, with revisions into the early 1980s, captures the complex balance between federal defense facilities like Aberdeen Proving Ground and the historical rural roots of the area. Educational and spiritual centers like the McComas Institute and St Mary's Church anchor the older inland settlements.
