Sudbrook Park

Sudbrook Park is a historic neighborhood near Pikesville, Maryland located just northwest of the Baltimore. The community dates to 1889 when it was designed by American landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, Sr. (1822–1903) and developed by the Sudbrook Company. Known most for designing well-known urban projects like Central Park in New York City, Olmsted conceived this "suburban village" with curved roads and open green spaces, traits that set the community apart from its contemporaries. Two homes in the district were designed by architect George Archer in the Colonial Revival style. Sudbrook Park was registered on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, and from 1993 to 1999 portions of Sudbrook Park became listed as Baltimore County Historic Districts. Today, the community continues to uphold Olmsted's vision through community association regulations. It is a tight-knit community and holds several annual events and neighborhood activities. One-lane bridge One of Sudbrook Park's unique features is the one-lane bridge that crosses over Western Maryland Railway. Constructed in 1889, the bridge stood for more than a century with a wooden platform. In 2005, the bridge closed for reconstruction. It reopened about a year later with an asphalt pavement, retaining its one-lane status in order to preserve the community's historic charm.

Talbot County Courthouse (Maryland)

The Talbot County Courthouse is located at 11 North Washington Street in Easton, Maryland, United States. The courthouse houses the chambers and courtrooms for the judge of the Circuit Court for Talbot County, as well as the clerk's offices, jurors' assembly room, the master's office and the offices of the Talbot County Council. History The abolitionist Frederick Douglass was held in the jail at the rear of the courthouse after his aborted attempt to escape slavery on April 2, 1836. On May 27, 1862, Union Army General John Adams Dix issued orders for the arrest of Judge Richard Bennett Carmichael, suspected of being a southern sympathizer after requesting juries to serve indictments against federal officials who arrested three men acting disruptively at a union rally in November 1861. More than 125 deputies and soldiers surrounded the courthouse; two of them entered the courtroom and seized Carmichael. A man named John L. Bishop beat Carmichael over the head with his pistol until the judge was unconscious. Carmichael was dragged out of the courtroom and taken by steamer to Fort McHenry. Six months later he was released without ever being charged or tried for any crime. Statues The "Talbot Boys" statue, a monument to the Confederate army, was installed in front of the courthouse in 1916 and removed after years-long protests in March 2022. A statue of Frederick Douglass, installed in 2004, remains at the same site. References

The structure is a small, mid-19th-century country church, built of stone, covered with stucco, painted white, and has a gable roof.

The house is 4 stories, irregular in elevation and plan, with much architectural ornament.

Many structural elements were salvaged from other buildings in the US and Europe, including several items from the Glen Ellen Mansion, which had been near Loch Raven Reservoir. The main façade is dominated by two asymmetrically placed, projecting sections topped by massive half-timbered gables that were originally part of a Medieval house in Domrémy, France.

The Rossborough Inn

The Rossborough Inn is a historic building facing Baltimore Avenue/United States Route 1 (also formerly known as the old Washington Boulevard and the Washington and Baltimore Turnpike) on the eastern edge of the campus of the University of Maryland at College Park. Construction on the building began in 1798 and was completed in 1803, making it the oldest building on campus (older than the 1856 university itself) and the oldest building in the adjoining town of the City of College Park. It is built in the Federal style. The lower wings were added in 1938, as part of extensive renovations. The Rossborough Inn is listed as a historic site by the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission. The inn and tavern was constructed by land speculator John Ross, to serve people traveling between Baltimore and Washington D.C. (on the old Washington and Baltimore Turnpike). According to Anne Turkos, the former archivist for the University of Maryland Libraries, the name '"Rossborough"' refers to the name of the area the inn was built on in the late 18th Century and early 19th Century, after landowner Richard Ross ("Rossborough" was used interchangeably with "Rossburg" as late as the 1920s). By 1835, financial troubles had doomed the business and the building was being used as a farmhouse by its owner, Charles Benedict Calvert, (1808–1864), whose family owned the nearby Riversdale Plantation. In 1858, Calvert donated the land that the Rossborough building sat on to the Maryland Agricultural College (now University of Maryland at College Park). The Rossborough Inn was a faculty residence when, in 1864, during the Civil War, Confederate Army General Bradley T. Johnson (of Frederick, Maryland) and his cavalry brigade occupied the university grounds, utilizing the building as his headquarters. The building has been used for a variety of purposes since. Currently it contains the Office of Undergraduate Admissions, but it has acted as the home of University of Maryland Faculty and Alumni Club and housed a restaurant, "The Carriage House", that served lunch on weekdays. According to campus lore, the Rossborough Inn is haunted by ghosts of the American Civil War. Extensive renovations by the university (aided by the federal government) have resulted in a significantly more contemporary appearance than the original. Carved in the keystone above the front door is the head of Silenus, made of a rare Coade stone. References
The Shops at Kenilworth

The Shops at Kenilworth is a shopping mall in Towson, Maryland. It is owned and operated by Greenberg Gibbons and features anchors Trader Joe's, About Faces Day Spa, The Mine and Arhaus. It has more than 30 stores and 147,507 square ft of gross leasable area. History The mall opened in 1979 as the Kenilworth Bazaar. The original anchor stores were Stebbins Anderson and Hochschild Kohn's. In 2008, the mall started to undergo a multimillion-dollar facelift. The mall managed to attract new tenants, despite a downturned economy that year. In 2009, the mall celebrated its 30th anniversary, and stated that its retailers were doing well, despite the downturn in the economy. In 2014, developer Greenberg Gibbons would buy a stake in the mall, fully acquiring it in 2015. After taking full ownership, Greenberg Gibbons announced a multi-million dollar renovation and expansion of the mall, including reconfiguration of the current retail space to give the mall street frontage on Kenilworth Drive. As part of the process, Stebbins Anderson downsized to only occupy the ground level of the mall. Trader Joe's would occupy the majority of the former Stebbins space as the expansion was completed in 2017 and Trader Joe's would open on March 17, 2017. In 2019, longtime tenant Stebbins Anderson announced that it would be closing its store, which had downsized to a single floor in 2015, following the closure of its Ace Hardware store. The store would be replaced by The Mine, a boutique fitness studio, in 2022. Another former anchor, Jos. A. Bank, would close in 2021 to be replaced by Arhaus, which opened in 2023.
