1949 Map of Edgewood
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
The Army Chemical Center and Aberdeen Proving Ground dominate this coastal Maryland landscape, highlighting the mid-century intersection of military industry and Chesapeake Bay geography. This 1949 edition, updated in the 1980s, captures the evolution of Harford County as it transitioned from an agrarian and industrial past — exemplified by Harford Furnace — into a strategic military corridor. The map details a dense network of transportation, including the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, Amtrak, and the Pulaski Highway, which facilitated both troop movements and the growth of settlements like Edgewood and Abingdon.
