About Tamarack Triangle

The Tamarack Triangle community has about 886 homes bordered by Fairland Road, East Randolph Road, and Paint Branch Stream Valley. It is on land that is the ancestral home of the Piscataway Conoy people. We respect Maryland's Indigenous peoples and hope to remain good guardians of these lands.

The community is in Silver Spring, Maryland an area among the best in our country as reported in Fortune Announces the 50 Best Places to Live for Families 2024. Started in the 1960s this neighborhood of Silver Spring is an ethnically and racially diverse community with many long-term residents.

On January 21, 2025, a new Executive Board was elected by attending community neighbors at the TTCA meeting at Page Elementary School. The association has occasional in-person and Zoom meetings to keep our residents informed of various activities. 

Don't miss our 20th anniversary newsletter The Tamarack Bark published in Dec. 1986 (also available on the Home page under Documents).

Also, we highly recommend an article by Elgin Klugh, "African Americans as Placemakers in the Tamarack Triangle Community of Silver Spring, Md.", 2010, City and Society, vol. 22 (2): 186-206, a publication of the American Anthropological Association  (Wiley Online Library).
