This is an old A. Hoen & Co. lithograph of the Wm. Knabe & Co. Piano Forte Factory in Baltimore. These buildings used to be where the M&T Stadium is now located. The large building with the cupola was located on Eutaw and West Streets. The cupola now resides at the Baltimore Museum of Industry on Key Highway. I've included a close up of the old factory from the E. Sachse & Co. 1869 Bird's Eye View map of Baltimore.
