Towson Then and Now by Melissa Schehlein
Photo Details



The Now Photography in Towson Then & Now was produced in 31 shoot-days within a 327-day period, all within 2010. Three different cameras were used. Two different lenses.

In February of 2010, Towson and greater Baltimore experienced Twin Blizzards, back to back. The backdrop the snow provided was seen in many of the now images, as it lasted for a long time.

Twin Blizzard Dates:
February 5-6 = 24” (approximately)
February 9-10 = 20” (approximately)

On page 95 of Towson Then & Now, the index lists the following pages under “Twin Blizzards of 2010”:
