The American Brewery is an historic former brewery located at 1701 North Gay Street in Baltimore, Maryland, United States.〔 Formerly abandoned and left to decay, it has been recently renovated and beautified. It is currently the headquarters of Humanim Inc. ==History== Built in 1887 by John Frederick Wiessner, a German immigrant, the American Brewery in East Baltimore was one of the largest breweries in the state of Maryland. At its peak, the brewery employed 61 workers: 16 in brewery work, 17 drivers, 14 in the bottling house, 8 garage men, and 6 office workers.〔(John F. Wiessner & Sons Brewery )〕 The central tower of the building housed a 10,000-bushel grain elevator.〔Mitchell IV, Alexander D. ''Baltimore Then & Now'' (2002) p. 132-33. Thunder Bay Press, San Diego, California. ISBN 1-57145-688-0〕 Prohibition forced the shutdown of the facility in 1920. In 1931 the Wiessner family sold the brewery to the American Malt Company,〔(MHS Library )〕 which modernized the interior equipment and operated the brewery until 1973. The building was listed that year in the National Registry of Historic Sites. The Brewery has become the new home for Humanim, a Columbia, Maryland, nonprofit organization, secured $22.5 million for renovations of the American Brewery complex into its new headquarters. The City of Baltimore approved the building permit in early 2004, and work is now complete. The American Brewery is situated in the center of one of East Baltimore’s most blighted neighborhoods.
