Riverdale Park Historic District, located in Prince George's County, Maryland, is a national historic district that developed beginning in 1889 as an early railroad suburb northeast of Washington, D.C., centered around a B & O passenger railroad station. The community's residential architecture ranges from large 2½-story wood-frame dwellings and smaller bungalows to an eclectic collection of imposing Queen Anne and Colonial Revival houses. A notable feature is Riversdale, an early-19th-century mansion. The district was expanded with 20th-century additions and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
