Parts of the neighborhood shown in this vintage photograph are probably still recognizable if you drive through today.
Other parts though, like the streetcar that can be seen in the foreground (lower right), have certainly changed.
This photo, pulled from the Baltimore County Public Library catalog, was taken by Roger Mason back in 1926.

Homer, good thinking. That the photo is of Overlea. I'm pretty sure the bank building still looks the same, but a lot has changed along that streetscape.
