fire one over to Linthicum, Maryland - 39-12-59.15 N / 76-40-24.55 W
I pulled that up in Google Earth...South Baltimore...but the coordinates shows me an empty field. 39 12 59.15 N / 76 40 24.55 W is what I had to paste in....Are you off I-695 and Highway 295?

I've only been through there a couple of times and it was always dark...I'm curious what the place looks like.

You got the right location, K - the GoogleEarth photo is probably 2 years old. Its a suburban office/warehouse park now - we are on "Progress" Drive, just off West Nursery Rd.

Awful, isn't it? Nothing interesting within walking distance except a wrecking yard that would probably be a treasure trove for mutant vehicle assemblers.

You missed Global Way and Digital Drive. Talk about some creative street names!

Of course that area looks more interesting than mine:

The golden spike was driven in a few days ago, so roads should be being marked off and fencelines should be going up.
