Edwards Home

Photo

James Walter Edwards Jr. moved his family into this home on Albany Avenue, east of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad tracks, in 1940. After the Christmas holiday that year, Edwards planted the Christmas tree used in his living room, along with one used in a friend’s celebration. These transplanted trees dwarf the Edwards’ house in this 1960s photograph. The home was demolished in the mid-1970s as part of the urban renewal project.
