I like Gaitherburg, a town tells a lot of stories and feel warm visiting. There are a lot nice aged buildings. It is very welcoming and I love the train station and walking in the breeze is very relaxing and enjoyable especially in the new year eve.

The city of Gaithersburg occupies 10 square miles in the heart of Montgomery County , Maryland . The southeastern border of the City lies just 13 miles from the northwestern border of Washington , D.C. , and 18 miles northwest of the U.S. Capitol Building. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 52,613. This city is located to the northwest of Rockville, Maryland, the county seat of Montgomery County. Gaithersburg was incorporated in 1878.

Gaitherburg is home to the neo-traditionalist new town of Kentlands, Maryland, designed by Andrés Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk.

The area was originally known to local inhabitants as Log Town. The first house within the current Gaithersburg was built by Benjamin Gaither in 1802, and the name was changed in his honor shortly afterward.

The railroad was brought to Gaithersburg in the 1850s, with the Gaither family helping to get the railroad to come.

In 1899, Gaithersburg was selected as one of six global locations for the construction of an International Latitude Observatory. The Gaithersburg Latitude Observatory is (as of 2004) the only National Historic Landmark in the City of Gaithersburg.
