Description: View of President Street Station, Baltimore, Maryland. Looking from the northwest. The station was built by the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad (PW&B) in 1850. With the opening of Baltimore Union Station (now called Penn Station) in 1873, the President Street Station became principally a freight station. In the 1970s it was used as a trucking terminal. On the left, behind the head house, is the train shed that was added in 1913 and replaced the original 1850 shed.
