All photos are northbound.


Greenspring Ave. begins as the local road through Druid Hill Park, and you'll find this inside. It took awhile for me to figure out that this was the 1948 Reptile House for the Maryland Zoo, decommissioned in 2004 and now just sitting vacant on the northwest corner of Beechwood Drive.


I'll just leave here that the three classic signs after the chevron are all on the same pole. Baltimore's font in guide, regulatory, and warning forms. The Manual of Baltimore Traffic Control Devices. Anyway, after this, Greenspring Ave. briefly disappears at Northern Pkwy. and reappears two blocks to the west. Greenspring was here first and they built the parkway on top of it.


Do not adjust your monitor; adjust the sign at Ken Oak Road.


Another classic Baltimore sign, below a curve sign that was faded but properly rotated and otherwise to modern standards, unlike those last few signs.


I don't have the slightest clue why so many cameras are needed on the same pole. I can't even tell how many devices there are, let alone what each one is doing. It's at the northwest corner of Taney Rd. and Hanson Ave., near a bus stop but otherwise unremarkable as far as I could tell.
