Our History
Henderson's Wharf in Baltimore Harbor, originally O'Donnell's Wharf, epitomizes the city's maritime and industrial heritage. Purchased in 1850 by merchant James A. Henderson, it transformed into a major steamship hub, culminating in its acquisition by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad for tobacco distribution to Europe. Designed by architect E. Francis Baldwin in 1897, the building later adapted for various storage purposes until its abandonment in 1976. A significant fire in 1984 led to its renovation into condos and hotels, retaining original architectural elements. Today, it retains original features like ground-level swinging doors, upper-floor shutters, and most facade brickwork, blending Baltimore's industrial history with contemporary living, symbolizing the city's resilience and architectural heritage.
