K Section Kids

Growing Up in Belair at Bowie

di Gordon Mead Stewart

Informazioni sul libro
Growing up in Belair at Bowie, a Levitt planned community, was a multi-faceted gift. This book is a firsthand account of that formative experience, starting with the construction of the family's home and progressing to the author's halfway point at Kenilworth Elementary. Each chapter is a self-contained "campfire story." Most everyone who grew up in Bowie during the 60s and 70s will relate to this book on a personal level—and much of it captures the flavor of suburban America at the time.

Gordon Stewart
United States

Gordon Mead Stewart is an architect who grew up in Bowie, Maryland. His architectural work ranges from a timber-frame retreat on Virginia’s Northern Neck to an office/retail/parking tower that includes a monorail station in downtown Seattle, and from a childcare building in West Virginia to a radar station in Honduras. His Parisienne wife, Jacqueline, works as a scientist at nearby NASA Goddard. Her desire to raise their family in Bowie probably helped spark these memories. Since 1992 their home has been a Levitt colonial on Belair Drive facing Bowie’s “tree tunnel”, a bridal path lined with beech trees.
