Maryland Route 407 - History

History

Construction on the first section of MD 407 from MD 31 through Marston began shortly after 1930. That section and a second segment to west of Dennings were completed as a concrete road by 1933. The final portion through Dennings to MD 27 was completed in 1936. MD 407 has changed very little since it was constructed.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    Only the history of free peoples is worth our attention; the history of men under a despotism is merely a collection of anecdotes.
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)

    The history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations ... all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    In history as in human life, regret does not bring back a lost moment and a thousand years will not recover something lost in a single hour.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)
