1953 Map of Havre De Grace

About this map

Havre De Grace anchors the western bank of the Susquehanna River in this mid-century survey, showing the city's dense grid of streets like Revolution St and Market St meeting the waterfront at Concord Pt. Across the water, the expansive Bainbridge Naval Training Center dominates the hills above Port Deposit, featuring an Amphitheater and numerous military structures. The landscape is defined by the intersection of major transportation and institutional hubs, including the Pennsylvania railroad lines and the sprawling grounds of the U S Veterans Hospital at Perry Point. Local history and genealogy are well-represented by rural landmarks such as Cokesbury Ch, Principio Furnace, and family burial sites like Patterson Cem. The map captures a moment when industrial sites like the Quarry near Blythedale operated alongside significant federal and military installations at the head of the Chesapeake Bay.
