A Brief
History of Morningside, Maryland
Morningside
came into existence in 1949 when residents incorporated a
triangular piece of suburban Prince George's County adjacent
to Andrews Air Force Base. The new municipality was without
paved roads and relied on well water and septic tanks for
utilities.
Initially,
the majority of the residents were veterans of World War II
and later of the Vietnam War. In the late 1970s, the make up
of the town slowly began to change. By the end of the 20th
century, only about a quarter of the residents were
veterans. Many of the residents now are civilian personnel
working at the various government agencies in the area.
Throughout
its growth, the town has experienced change. Public water
and sewage systems, storm sewers, paved roads, and street
lighting have been installed. The Morningside Elementary
School and the Traditional School, named after Brig. Gen.
Benjamin D. Foulois, have been built within the town.
Morningside
is known as the "Gateway to the Nation's Capital." The main
access to Andrews AFB is along Suitland Road, the town's
"Main Street." The president, vice president, members of
Congress, State Department officials, kings, queens, prime
ministers, and other U.S. and foreign dignitaries all use
that route when traveling by road for their flights to or
from Andrews AFB. The townspeople have witnessed events of
portent, happiness, and sadness pass through their town.
They watched the jubilant return of hostages from Iran and
the somber cortège of John F. Kennedy on its progress from
Dallas to Washington.
