Evergreen Roofers
Are you looking for a roofing contractor in Baltimore’s Evergreen neighborhood?
Evergreen is a small neighborhood in North Baltimore that offers a wide array of housing styles from Queen Annes and Victorians to shingle-style houses and rowhomes. Residents can choose from condos, apartments and rowhomes with small front porches and single-family, detached homes with larger porches. The neighborhood offers plenty of trees and green space and is convenient to both Notre Dame of Maryland University and Loyola University.
The Evergreen neighborhood is located in North Baltimore and was one of the first residential developments in its area, coming even before Roland Park. The land subdivided to become Evergreen was inherited by an heir of the Cockey family in 1813 and was originally called “Ridgely’s Whim.” In 1873, two men named Brooks and Barton purchased the land and began to create a neighborhood called Evergreen for middle-class workers and their families.
The Evergreen is a rare example of an early non-rowhouse suburban-style community. The neighborhood was easily accessible, despite being several miles from the heart of Baltimore. There were two railroad stops on opposite corners of the neighborhood; one was at Cold Spring Lane and one at Oakdale.
