2016 Map of Rockville

About this map

The Potomac River corridor defines the southwestern edge of this Montgomery County landscape, where the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal follows the river's bend near Great Falls Lake. This era shows the dense suburban maturation of the region, anchored by the municipal centers of Gaithersburg, Rockville, and Bethesda. The transition from riverine parklands like the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park to intensive residential developments is marked by a complex network of named neighborhoods, including Hungerford Towne, Tilden Woods, and Bradley Hills Grove. Education and local heritage are well-preserved through landmarks such as the Montgomery Coll Rockville Campus and several historical burial sites, including Saint Marys Cem and the Union Armory Cem. The terrain is deeply etched by a series of tributaries such as Watts Br and Cabin John Cr that flow toward the Potomac.
