Allied Chemical. . .I'm a transplant but I understand that before Baltimore's Inner Harbor (and now to the east and west too)was gentrified and introduced to a different kind of commercialization (under William Donald Schaffer's watchful eye), was a nitty, gritty industrial place.
When I got here in 1998, the entire area where Allied Chemical was located had been razed. All that was left was a large gravel lot jutting into the water. I believe whatever operations went on there left a bit of an environmental mess behind. This area - at least in part - has been transformed into "Harbor East." An upscale mixed use primo tourist destination.
Nearly 30 years and worlds apart. . .
