The Patuxent River corridor between Washington and Baltimore serves as a transition between growing suburban settlements and large federal landholdings during the late 1950s. The city of Laurel is a primary hub, featuring the Laurel Race Track and the Laurel Sanitarium alongside neighborhood schools like Phair Sch and Grove Sch. This era of development is contrasted by the vast wooded tracts of the Fort George G Meade Military Reservation and the Patuxent Research Refuge.
