Long & Foster Living
Maryland -
The "Old Line State"
Maryland the “Free State,” has it all - the beautiful coastline of Chesapeake Bay,
the fabulous Eastern Shore, the majestic Allegheny Mountains, the rolling farmlands
of central Maryland and metropolitan
Baltimore. Its unique geography makes it possible to enjoy both the mountains
and the shore without traveling too far. Maryland regions are rich in historical
landmarks like churches and museums, as the state played a significant role in the
development of the United States. In fact, it’s the birthplace of “The Star-Spangled
Banner.”
Much of Long & Foster’s real estate business in Maryland is concentrated in the eastern part
of the state near Washington, D.C. We have at least 125 real estate sales offices
here.

Baltimore is truly an American success story. Since the redevelopment of
the Inner Harbor in the late 1970s, Baltimore has set the standard for urban renewal
and is now a major travel destination welcoming nearly 13 million business and leisure
visitors each year. It is also an ideal place to live and thousands of families
interested in a high quality of life and a fine place to raise a family come to
Baltimore every year.
Baltimore is the 12th largest city in the United States and is named "Charm
City" for its residents’ well-established concern for quality of life in this vibrant
city. Long considered a southern town, Baltimore owed much of its early growth and
prosperity to its desirable location. It lay farther west than any other major Atlantic
port, endearing its harbor to shippers. Baltimore now ranks fifth among United States
ports, with major railways and trucking lines carrying cargoes to and from docks
at Canton Bay and Curtis Bay, as well as raw materials to the city's many factories.
The crown jewel of Baltimore is the Inner Harbor, a scenic and popular waterfront
area with dozens of retail stores, restaurants and attractions. Since the 1600s,
the Inner Harbor has been welcoming people, ships and goods from all over the world.
Baltimore plays host to several festivals and events year-round. One of its major
tourist attractions is the Preakness, a segment of the horse racing Triple Crown.
This event takes place in May and draws a huge crowd. The city holds many waterfront
and neighborhood festivals during the summer as well, including Artscape, a three-day
event honoring the arts.
Baltimore's economy and cultural life, in addition to its geography, influenced
its local development. Baltimoreans tend to have roots in clearly identified neighborhoods,
and this sense of local identification has helped counter the alienation associated
with modern city life.
Baltimore’s growth is continuing unabated in the 21st century. Development is moving
both east and west of the Inner Harbor with more projects on the way.

Homes in Southern Maryland
Homes in Southern Maryland
Long & Foster’s outstanding reputation for integrity and financial strength goes
a long way, and Southern Maryland is no exception. We have more than 10 sales offices
in Southern Maryland. So Long & Foster is THE real estate firm to rely on in this
lovely, peaceful region of the Free State.
Southern Maryland is where Maryland's history began in 1634 when 140 brave colonists
established the fourth permanent settlement in British North America. As time passed,
native woodland trails gave way to the rolling roads of tobacco plantations, and
square-riggers gave way to steamboats and skipjacks. Today, Southern Maryland's
unique past is richly preserved in its numerous historic sites, museums, and rural
scenic byways.
Beyond history, Southern Maryland is a natural wonderland, with fossil-filled cliffs
and sculpted sandy beaches, lighthouses standing watch over limitless waters and
an American Heritage River teeming with largemouth and striped bass. There are great
opportunities await for boating, hiking, biking and sampling the bounty of land
and sea.

Outdoor activities abound at the Eastern Shore. You can roam miles of unspoiled
beaches, spend a few quiet hours saltwater fishing, camp for the night in natural
settings, or observe a wide variety of wildlife at one of the Eastern Shore’s many
parks. For the less outdoorsy, plenty of shopping can be found in the Shore’s wide
selection of quaint towns and charming historic districts.
One of the Eastern Shore’s biggest attractions is
Ocean City, Maryland. With 10 miles of lovely sandy beaches and beautiful
views of both ocean and bay waters, Ocean City is a wonderful place for vacations
or to call home.
Ocean City was founded in 1875 as a small fishing village. Over the last century,
it has made a gradual transformation into one of the most popular vacation destinations

tradition, coming back year after year just as their parents and grandparents before.

the calendar. Water sports and fishing have always been popular attractions, with
hundreds of square miles of water to enjoy. Visit the newly renovated world-famous,
three-mile Boardwalk and browse the many shops and sample the foods in the eateries
