Laurel, Maryland, on the banks of the Patuxent River, is located almost midway between Washington, DC, and Baltimore. It was founded as a mill town in the early 19th century. In 1835, the arrival of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad allowed the city to become an early commuter town for Washington and Baltimore workers. The city is largely residential today and the city’s historic district on its Main Street contains buildings highlighting its industrial past. There are several federal government facilities in Laurel including the Department of Defense, the Fort Meade Army base, and the National Security Agency. Two of the more popular attractions are the Laurel Mill Playhouse on Main St., an amateur theater that performs comedies, dramas, and musicals year-round, and the Dinosaur Park which is home to one the most important dinosaur fossil sites east of the Mississippi River and houses a collection of 110 million-year-old fossils. Laurel also offers diverse dining options, including a selection of Indian restaurants for those eager to savor flavorful cuisine.
