About this map

Liberty Lake and the Patapsco River define the eastern and central landscape of this Carroll County region, which was undergoing significant change in the mid-20th century. The extensive grounds of the Springfield State Hospital Center dominate the southern portion near Sykesville, while the Western Maryland RR skirts the northeastern corner through Finksburg and Cedarhurst. This map records the agrarian roots of communities like Gamber and Louisville alongside newer infrastructure, such as the Drive-in Theatre near Oklahoma.
