Join us on E. Preston Street inside a cavernous building that used to house Detrick and Harvey Machine Company, which produced heavy machinery for factories, mills and mines across the country. After Bethlehem Steel bought the company and moved out, the building had several occupants and then sat vacant…until this year when ReBUILD Metro bought it. We are delighted to be joined by Sean Closkey, president of ReBUILD Metro, to tell us what’s in store for this historic building and how it will benefit the Johnston Square community. Thanks for watching and see you soon with another video.
This is our series called "Five Minute Histories." Every week, we’ll record a short video about a different historic place in Baltimore and post it on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
