Abandoned Places

Old Conowingo (Drowned Town)

Conowingo, MD

Old Conowingo lies beneath the Susquehanna at Conowingo, Maryland — a mill town drowned in 1928 when the great dam closed its gates. Low water is said to show its bones, and river telling keeps lights and bells beneath the surface.

Abandoned Places

Daniels Ghost Town

Ellicott City, MD

Daniels lies ruined on the Patapsco above Ellicott City, Maryland — a mill town emptied by its company in 1968, then scoured by Hurricane Agnes. Church shells and dam remain in the state park, where valley telling keeps hymn-song and window lights.
