Copycat Building, Former manufacturing complex in Baltimore, Maryland
The Copycat Building is a former manufacturing complex in Baltimore with six floors and spacious lofts featuring 13-foot (4-meter) ceilings. The spaces serve as both residences and creative workspaces for those who live there.
The building was constructed in 1897 as a factory for the Crown Cork & Seal Company and received its name from a printing company billboard displayed on its roof. These early industrial roots shaped its later transformation into creative space.
The building serves as a gathering place in the Station North Arts and Entertainment District, housing artists, musicians, and creative professionals in its converted spaces. This community shapes the neighborhood and makes it a place where artistic work happens visibly.
The building sits three minutes from the MARC Train station and offers gated parking plus on-site maintenance services. High-speed internet is available in all units.
In 1899, young workers between ages 13 and 18 organized a strike for better working conditions. This early labor action shows how the building played a key role in local workers' history.
