Severna Park, Census-designated place in Anne Arundel County, Maryland.
Severna Park is a residential community located between the Severn River and Magothy River in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. The area consists of family neighborhoods interspersed with parks and green spaces that provide water access and outdoor recreation opportunities.
The settlement began as a railroad stop called Boone and expanded into a suburban community after World War II when families moved from larger cities seeking residential space. The railroad's presence shaped early development patterns that later influenced how the area grew into its current form.
The Baltimore and Annapolis Trail, built on former railroad lines, serves as a daily meeting place where residents walk, jog, and bike together through the area. The path shapes how people experience their neighborhood and spend time outdoors.
The area is easily accessible via Interstate 97 and Maryland Transit Administration Route 70 bus service, both connecting to Baltimore and Annapolis. These connections make it convenient for visitors to reach the location from nearby cities or explore the surrounding region.
The Robinson House, added to the National Historic Register in 2009, displays construction methods and craftsmanship from the area's early settlers. Walking around this structure offers a tangible connection to how the first residents built their homes.
