” Arden, the home of Victor G. Bloede was built in 1898. It was located in Eden Terrace, a community developed in the late 1890s by Eden Construction Company, which was owned by Bloede. Bloede, a graduate of Cooper Institute, was best known for inventing and patenting the glue used on postage stamps. He also owned the Caton Spring Company, the Patapsco Light Company, and the Edmondson Avenue Catonsville & Ellicott City Electric Railway. Arden burned on December 22, 1922, the day after his son Victor died of pneumonia.”
