Catonsville

Highlights
Catonsville

Despite being home to two colleges, Catonsville tends to be known more as a place to pass through on the way to more prominent neighbors Columbia, Ellicott City or Baltimore rather than a destination of its own. Historically, the town was exactly that -- a crossroads just outside of Baltimore where travelers would stop on their way up the Frederick Turnpike. The business those travelers brought with them is what gave life to the shopping districts that now line Catonsville's main roads of Edmonson Avenue, Route 40 and Frederick Road (the former Frederick Turnpike). The town's excellent shopping and many restaurants and bars make it an optimal stop for a taste of the city without the crowds.  Show more »
