What's inside the Baltimore Museum of Industry

Devoted to the exploration of historical sites in the Mid-Atlantic, Historical Travel takes an in-depth look inside the Baltimore Museum of Industry's gallery on early commercial road transportation.

Here's an excerpt:

"The Baltimore Museum of Industry was founded in 1977 for the purpose of preserving the City's rapidly disappearing industrial heritage. A few years after its founding the museum moved to the Inner Harbor's historic Platt Oyster Cannery building, a setting which contributes a definite air of authenticity to the facility. Special galleries recreate parts of a cannery, a garment loft, a machine shop and a print shop. Exhibits are dedicated to major industrial companies that made the region a base of operations, such as food industry giants McCormick & Company, Domino Sugar and Esskay Meat Products."
