Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties
The Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties is a broad-based repository of information on districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects of known or potential value to the prehistory, history, upland and underwater archeology, architecture, engineering, or culture of the State of Maryland. The inventory was created shortly after the Maryland Historical Trust was founded in 1961, and now includes data on more than 8,000 archeological sites and 80,000 historic and architectural resources. Inclusion in the Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties involves no regulatory restrictions or controls . For a summary of material included in the inventory, see the separate listing for the Trust's Library and Archives.
For more information on standing structures, contact Thomas Reinhart at 410-514-7645.
Information on the standing structures recorded in the Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties is now available on-line. In a joint venture with the Maryland State Archives, the Maryland Historical Trust had some 33,000 paper forms and photographs scanned to produce an electronic version of the inventory (Baltimore City is not included). The project was funded through a T-21 grant administered by the Maryland State Highway Administration. Entries are searchable by property name, location, or keywords in the inventory text.
