Description

Sparrows Point, a promontory jutting into the Chesapeake Bay east of Baltimore , MD , was named for Thomas Sparrow who received the land as a grant from Lord Baltimore in 1652. In 1887, Frederick Wood, working with an industrial combination of The Pennsylvania Steel Co. and the Bethlehem Iron Co., began the construction of the enormous works that would first become Maryland Steel and subsequently Bethlehem Steel.
