Six Flags Power Plant, Indoor amusement park at Inner Harbor, Baltimore, United States
Description
Six Flags Power Plant was a large entertainment complex in a massive brick building with terra cotta trim and steel frame construction on Pratt Street. The structure rose four stories and housed theater halls and interactive attractions throughout its interior spaces.
History
The building was constructed in 1900 as a power station and survived the Baltimore Fire of 1904. It was converted in 1985 into an entertainment center bearing the Six Flags name.
Culture
The name comes from the building's original function as a power generation facility for the city. Visitors experienced theatrical shows and animated attractions set within a historic industrial building.
Practical
The venue was located right at Inner Harbor, so it was surrounded by water and other harbor structures. Visitors should know that the facility operated for a limited time before being repurposed as a nightclub.
Did you know?
Despite the Six Flags name, the park contained no traditional rides but only indoor theater experiences and animated shows. The entire facility was focused on theatrical components and walk-through exhibitions.
