Port Deposit Among Towns Vying For HGTV Spotlight
Three towns in Maryland are competing to get a makeover from HGTV.

PORT DEPOSIT, MD — A number of Maryland communities have put their names into the running for a large-scale makeover as part of a new HGTV show. At least three Maryland towns — the town of Port Deposit, Cumberland and the Town of Hancock — have applied to be on “Home Town Takeover,” which HGTV calls a six-episode special based on the original “Home Town” show currently airing on the network.
The network said towns with a population of 40,000 or less were eligible to apply.
