1951 Map of White Marsh

About this map

The Gunpowder Falls river valley anchors this map, carving a winding path through the borderlands of Baltimore and Harford counties. During the mid-20th century, this region transitioned from a collection of dispersed mill towns and rural stations into a more integrated suburban landscape. The transportation network is defined by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and the Pennsylvania Railroad, which supported early 20th-century settlements like Long Green Station, White Marsh Station, and Bradshaw Station.
