Please, make time to enter, take their academy tour, and visit the gift shop. You'll enjoy it all. This is one of my favorite walking areas, will definitely return, and highly recommend it.

This Maryland Bridge has cashless tolling , EZ pass, or pay-by-plate video toll. Although I'm always trepidatious driving over bridges, this one was all right! These huge Modern marvels always fascinate me, this one is part suspension with through-truss beams; the X lattice work spans the suspension section. Officially named, Governor William Preston Lane, Jr. Memorial Bridge is dual laned, separated traffic which makes crossing seem more safe and secure, even though the lack of shoulders and low guardrails, with a high frequency of strong winds deem it one of the scariest bridges in U.S.! Nevertheless, we crossed over to the other side swimmingly!

The way back was much better and close to sunset so a beautiful view. I took my time as people drove past me, so don't be afraid to take your time or put your hazards on if you need to. Stay on the right lane and don't look down is the advice my coworker gave me and she was right :). On the way back there were 3 lanes open so I took the middle lane. Grateful for this bridge and the access it provides!

This outdoor memorial dedicated to Thurgood Marshall is located at Lawyer's Mall across from the…read morepublic entrance to the Maryland State House. Marshall was a native of Baltimore, earned his law degree from Howard University in DC, and then returned to Baltimore to work with the NAACP there. In 1935, he successfully argued for the admission of Donald Murray to the University of Maryland School of Law. He also argued several landmark cases before the U.S. Supreme Court: Brown v. Board of Education, Shelley v. Kraemer, and many more. He also of course was the first Black Supreme Court Justice, serving from 1967-1991. The location of the memorial is almost where the Maryland Court of Appeals stood in 1935, when Marshall argued the Murray case. The memorial was designed by a Maryland artist (Toby Mendez) and includes an 8-foot statue of Marshall as a young lawyer. Behind him are pillars with the inscription "Equal Justice Under Law," and before him are two benches. On one of the benches sits a statue of Donald Murray, and on the other bench sit the figures of two children representing who Marshall was fighting for when arguing Brown v. Board of Education. There is also a circle in the center of the square that contains text explaining some of the above context about the memorial. This memorial is great and well worth a visit if you're in the area.

Well, he was one of the big leaders in the civil rights era and he was a native of Baltimore. In 1967, he was the first African American to be appointed to the Supreme Court of the United States. The statue here was erected here on the 40th anniversary of the historic Brown vs Board of Education decision. The Supreme Court actually quoted from Marshall's argument before the Maryland Court. The words behind the Justice are "Equal Justice Under Law". As I've said in some of my Historic Marker reviews, it's important to remember where we came from.
