1894 Map of Ellicott
USGS Topo · Published 1898About this map
The Patapsco River carves a deep, winding valley through the center of this landscape, serving as a natural boundary between Carroll, Baltimore, and Howard counties. Surveyed in 1890, this area is defined by its transition from industrial river corridors to the developing hill country northwest of Baltimore. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad follows the river's bend at Sykesville and Gaither, while the Western Maryland Railroad and Maryland Central R. R. service northern hubs like Glyndon and Emory Grove. Local industry is prominent near the water, with Check Mills and several granite Quarries dotting the hillsides near Granite. Notable landmarks include St. Charles College and a dense network of turnpikes like the Reisterstown Turnpike, which linked rural settlements to the growing port city nearby.
