Английская Википедия:Hickory Ridge, Columbia, Maryland
Hickory Ridge is one of the 10 villages in Columbia, Maryland, United States, located to the west of the Town Center with a 2014 population of 13,000 in 4,659 housing units.[1] The village overlays the former postal community of Elioak. It was first occupied in 1974.[2] Neighborhoods in the village are Hawthorn, Clary's Forest, and Clemens Crossing. The name Hickory Ridge is derived from the 1749 estate "Hickory Ridge" in nearby Highland,[3] which later became the family home of the nephew of hospital and university founder Johns Hopkins.[4][5]
Clary's Forest is named after John Clary's 100-acre original land grant patented on 10 June 1734.[6] Streets in Clary's Forest are based on the work of William Carlos Williams. Hawthorn is the name of an Amy Lowell poem. The street names come from her work. Clemens Crossing is named after American author Mark Twain, otherwise known as Samuel Clemens, and the street names come from Clemens' work.[2][7]
The land surrounding Sierra Villas Condominiums and Barnside Condominiums in Clary's Forest originally belonged to the Kahler family farm. The farm's silo remains in the condominium property.[2] The Kahler farm was one of three large tracts originally purchased by Robert Moxley that started the Columbia project in 1963.[8] Hickory Plaza was built on the site of Midway Farm, the last piece of a Шаблон:Convert farm owned by the Bassler family before the creation of the Rouse development.[9]
