For this week's look into Parkville-Overlea history we turn to this photo, taken in 1936, of a church somewhere in our neighborhood. The church is still there today, but it certainly doesn't look like it did in this photograph. For what it's worth, the road is still there too—but the streetcar definitely isn't. The photo reprinted above was originally found on Baltimore County Public Library's Legacy Web, but do your best not to go look it up (that would ruin the fun). Do you know where this photo was taken? Share your best guess in the comments. If you have a photo from the history of Parkville or Overlea that you'd like to share in this weekly feature, contact editor Nick Gestido: nick.gestido@patch.com.

Can you guess where in the greater Parkville-Overlea area this photo was taken?
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. Can you guess which neighborhood this photo shows? Tell us in the comments.

Can you guess where in the greater Parkville-Overlea area this photo was taken?
If you grew up in Parkville, then you probably know where this photo was taken since you probably spent a lot of time here. This photo was uploaded to the "You Know You're From Parkville, Md When..." Facebook group by Lee Blumer-Rzepecki. It was taken in 1958 and, up until recently, the place it was taken hadn't changed much. Do you know where this picture was taken? Share your best guess and your memories of the place in the comments.
