1944 Map of Rockville

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Potomac River forms the southwestern edge of this landscape, which transitions from rural Montgomery County farmland into early suburban development. Small crossroads like Laytonsville, Sunshine, and Unity dot the northern reaches, while the Baltimore and Ohio RR serves as a primary transit spine through Gaithersburg and Rockville. A notable concentration of mid-century infrastructure is visible near the southern border, including the sprawling grounds of the Naval Medical Center and the Georgetown Preparatory Sch.
