An intersection of grit and hip in Baltimore



Baltimore is situated in the state of Maryland which is positioned in the central area along the tidal portion of the Patapsco River, an arm of the Chesapeake Bay. The independent city is often referred to as Baltimore city to distinguish it from surrounding Baltimore. 

The Bromo Seltzer Art Tower, modeled after the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, has a Seth Thomas timepiece that still serves the city after 102 years.


Joe Wall, who manages the Bromo Seltzer building and leads tours of the clock tower twice a month, checks the gear oil on one of the four faces.
