1956 Map of Round Bay
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
The Severn River and Magothy River define the intricate shoreline of Anne Arundel County in this mid-century survey, revised with 1970 aerial data. Purple overprint highlights the rapid suburban expansion of communities like Severna Park and Pasadena, while the Baltimore and Annapolis railroad line serves as a central corridor for growth. The landscape is dotted with long-standing local landmarks such as Silas Ch, Asbury Ch, and the extensive grounds of the Crownsville State Hospital. The transition from rural land to residential waterfront is visible across dozens of beach communities, including Mago Vista Beach and Arundel Beach. Significant local-history details are preserved here, from the Piney Grove Cem to industrial features like the Sand & Gravel Pit near Belvedere Heights. The map traces the evolving road network, from the historic Baltimore and Annapolis Road to the modern Severn River Bridge.
