About this map

Loch Raven Reservoir and the winding Gunpowder Falls dominate the northern landscape of this Baltimore County region, where suburban development meets the protected watershed. The area around Towson reflects its role as a regional center, featuring Towson University and the Towson Post Office. The map captures a high density of residential communities, from established neighborhoods like Springdale and Timonium to smaller developments such as Hampton Village and Riderwood Hills.

Genealogists may find value in the various burial sites recorded, including the Prospect Hill Park Cemetery, the Ridgely Family Cemetery, and the Oakleigh Pet Cemetery. Infrastructure is marked by the presence of the Loch Raven Dam and the Albrecht Airstrip, while the local economy and land use are further illustrated by the Gunpowder Quarry and various recreational spaces like the Loch Raven Golf Course.
