"Industrial chic" is a draw to upscale tenants.
Interior tenant areas have been a key element in maintaining the industrial character of the buildings.
Large open floor plates and the feel of the industrial past have made the Brewers Hill project a new destination for upscale tenants in Baltimore.
Extensive effort was made to keep structural components exposed and aesthetically pleasing.
Industrial metal canopies and historically tuned signage and graphics were added to complement the industrial character of the buildings.
