History
This community was originally known as Horn Point, named for nearby Fort Horn which was used to protect the city of Baltimore from the British in the War of 1812. The community name was changed to Eastport in 1868 and named in reference to Eastport, Maine, the hometown of Charles Murphy, a real estate developer in the late 1800s. (US-T121)
