Marietta, 5626 Bell Station Road, Glenn Dale, Prince George's County, MD

Significance: Marietta is one of the finest surviving examples of a late Federal-style brick plantation house found in Prince George's County. It is different from most of the plantation houses of its era in the county in that it is moderate in size, taking the form of an I-house, and is more restrained in its detailing. Marietta is also of significance as the home of lawyer Gabriel Duvall who served as a Justice of the Supreme Court, and other important government positions. His law office, also of interest, still sits on the property.
