Waverly Terrace

By The Explore 91视频 team

Named after Sir Walter Scott's 1814 novel Waverly, Waverly Terrace reflects the wealth of Franklin Square鈥檚 residents in the 1850s. The Baltimore Sun praised architect Thomas Dixon鈥檚 four-story row as "much handsomer than any yet finished in this city."

Matching the area鈥檚 current diversity today, residents in the early 1860s included both Confederate sympathizers (Miss Nannie, Miss Virginia, and Miss Julia Lomax, charged with disloyalty by Union troops) and African Americans (Lloyd Sutton drafted for the U.S. Colored Troops).
