Coca-Cola Baltimore Branch Factory

The Coca-Cola Baltimore facility is an industrial complex with two two-story brick buildings situated on 9.4 acres along the waterfront. The structures were designed for syrup manufacturing and storage operations and display the typical construction methods of industrial production sites from that era.

Construction of the facility began in 1921 and extended through 1948, marking a period of major industrial growth in Baltimore. This extended building phase reflected the company's growing needs and changing production requirements as operations expanded.

The name reflects Baltimore's role as a major production hub for the Coca-Cola Company during the twentieth century. The factory was a workplace for hundreds of employees and shaped the character of the industrial waterfront area.

The facility is located on East Fort Avenue in Baltimore's industrial waterfront area. Visitors should expect limited access since this is a historic building that is not regularly open for tours.

The building served not only as a production site but also housed the Coca-Cola Company's chemistry laboratory, where formulas and processes were developed. This combination of manufacturing and research under one roof was an uncommon arrangement for factory systems of that era.
