1953 Map of Love Point

About this map

Kent Island anchors the southern edge of this mid-century survey, situated at the strategic northern tip where the Chesapeake Bay meets the Chester River. The map focuses on the settlement of Love Point, a site shaped by its position at the end of the Baltimore and Eastern railroad line. At this point in the 1950s, the maritime infrastructure is clearly defined, including the Love Point Lighthouse and a Landing Strip near the northern shore.
