The History
41 Community Place is one of three buildings in the Winterode Complex, located in the northwest corner of Crownsville Hospital Memorial Park. It was built in 1942 during an expansion phase of Crownsville State Hospital (CSH) and named after Dr. Robert Winterode, the first superintendent of Crownsville State Hospital, who served from 1911 until 1947.
The use of the Winterode Complex varied over time, including housing, treatment, and dining facilities. The complex housed geriatric patients during the late 1960s, and operated as a school for adolescents until 1975. It is speculated that the wings of the complex housed separate wards for boys and girls, but has not been confirmed.
The complex conveyed to Anne Arundel County in 1979. Since then, county and state agencies, private medical and behavioral health providers, and nonprofit organizations have used the space. The most recent occupant of 41 Community Place (the Nonprofit Center building) was the Anne Arundel County Police Department. They moved to a new location in 2019.
