1. Taylor's Row Marker

Inscription. This row of 19th century utilitarian structures has been the architectural orphan of Ellicott City. Referred to on early maps as barns or sheds, these buildings were built between 1830 and 1870 to serve the livery trade. Because of their relative obscurity, they have been untouched and today very much resemble the original structures. They have withstood the threat of demolition and, wearing new faces, will continue to play a role in this historic community.

Topics. This historical marker is listed in this topic list: Notable Buildings. A significant historical year for this entry is 1830.
