[edit] Length

[1]

• DC: unknown - if it actually does enter; the NBI lists those bridges - including over the Anacostia River - as "state highway agency"; [2] says it begins at the line
• Prince George's County: 0.20 mi on US 50 (SHA maintained and called John Hanson Highway by them), 12.36 mi as federal parkway
• Anne Arundel County: 6.20 mi as federal parkway (to just south of MD 175), 8.90 mi as MD 295
• Baltimore County: 1.42 mi
• Baltimore City: 3.60 mi [3]
• total 32.52 mi [4]

[edit] Route 1

I changed the link from U.S. Route 1 (Maryland) to U.S. Route 1 because it redirected there anyway. Then changed the link Baltimore-Washington Boulevard to U.S. Route 1 in Maryland because those are the same roads (I hope I'm not wrong.) However, the article on U.S. Route 1 in Maryland needs to indicate that.

[edit] Hon Sign?

Perhaps a mention of the "notorious" alteration of the welcome sign at the northern end of the parkway? http://www.mail-archive.com/chat@charlesvillage.info/msg01197.html
