History

Huntington City was re-named in honor of the son of William Duckett Bowie, Oden Bowie, who was President of the Baltimore & Potomac Railroad at the time, and previously Governor of Maryland. The town was subsequently rechartered as Bowie in 1880. Woodward. Two years later the town of Bowie annexed the Levitt properties, and then re-incorporated the now-larger area as a city in 1963. A second railroad entered the community when the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Railroad electric trolley line commenced service in 1908. By 1902, the Baltimore & Potomac was purchased by the powerful Pennsylvania Railroad.
