Port Deposit, Administrative town in Cecil County, Maryland, US
Port Deposit stretches along the eastern bank of the Susquehanna River, featuring buildings constructed from local granite and traditional architectural elements throughout its streets.
The town's incorporation in 1824 followed the completion of the Susquehanna Canal in 1812, which redirected commercial traffic and established the settlement as a trading center.
The Jacob Tome School for Boys, founded in 1889, represented an educational institution that shaped the intellectual development of the region's youth for many years.
The Town Hall at 64 S Main Street operates Monday through Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., providing administrative services to residents and visitors.
The Conowingo Dam, constructed in 1927, transformed Port Deposit by controlling river flow and creating new opportunities for power generation in the region.
