Bayard Station Valve House

3D Model

“Bayard Station was once the headquarters for the Chesapeake Gas Company of Baltimore City, which merged with several other companies eventually becoming BGE. During the station’s heyday, the gas works spread over 14 acres. The complex included the Valve House; four large telescoping holding tanks, called “gasometers;” and a series of processing buildings, of which one remains today across Hamburg Street. The gas was manufactured, stored in the gasometers, and then piped into the valve house where it was compressed before being directed into the main lines of the city.”

Today, this building is home to an architectural salvage company called Housewerks. Since they purchased the building in 2005, they have worked to preserve the structure and have placed it on the National Register of Historic Places.
