Rodgers Forge, Maryland
Rodgers Forge is a national historic district located in the unincorporated Towson area of Baltimore County, Maryland, just north of the Baltimore City/County line. It is mostly a residential area, with rowhouses, apartments, single-family dwellings, and a new complex of luxury garaged townhomes. The area also has a small amount of commercial development. It is located just south of Towson University.
==History==
Rodgers Forge takes its name from the blacksmith shop of George Rodgers, built in 1800, that was once located on the southwest corner of York Road and Stevenson Lane.〔(The History of Rodgers Forge )〕 In 1934, builder James Keelty (Sr.)〔http://www.keelty.com/content/ourcompany/index.cfm〕 began work on the Rodgers Forge neighborhood, and constructed over 600 red brick rowhouses until World War II stopped development.〔 After the war, work resumed under the direction of Keelty's two son's James Keelty Jr. and Joseph Keelty. 1,777 homes were completed by 1956.
Today, about 7,000 people live in Rodgers Forge,〔 which is now considered among the Baltimore area’s "most sought after locations for families."
In 2004, Rodgers Forge gained international attention as the home of Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps.
