2016 Map of Towson

About this map

The Loch Raven Reservoir dominates the central landscape of this Baltimore County region, where the suburban growth of Towson meets preserved historical estates and sprawling parklands. Cultural and educational landmarks are clustered in the south, including the campuses of Towson Univ and Goucher Coll, alongside the significant grounds of the Hampton National Historic Site. To the north, the terrain transitions into more wooded and residential pockets like Blenheim and Long Green, bounded by the waters of Gunpowder Falls. Local history is preserved in several distinct burial grounds, such as the Ridgely Family Cem and the unique Oakleigh Pet Cem. The map illustrates a modern suburban network of schools and hospitals, like St Joseph Hospital, integrated into a landscape still defined by its major tributary systems including Merrymans Br and Dulaney Br.
