The Frederick Douglass-Isaac Myers Maritime Park celebrates Baltimore’s maritime history and first African-American owned shipyard in the country. The park highlights the life of Frederick Douglass as an enslaved child and young man and the leadership of Isaac Myers, a free-born African American who became a national leader. Visitors will also learn about the shipbuilding traditions of the Chesapeake Bay and the establishment of the African-American community in the 1800s through historic maps and images, artistic renderings, audio components, historic artifacts, and archaeological findings in a nearly 5,000-foot gallery of interactive learning centers.
