Baltimore Patapsco Avenue Terminal

The Patapsco Terminal opened in 2009 and is located within a few miles of the Port of Baltimore. The site consists of approximately 152,000 square feet of indoor warehousing space. The facility is an approved London Metal Exchange (LME) Warehouse and is an operator of Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) #74. The terminal operates as a storage, transfer and warehousing facility for packaged products.

Baltimore is one of only two Eastern U.S. ports where the main shipping channel reaches a depth of 50 feet. The Port of Baltimore is closer to the Midwest than any other East Coast port and it is within an overnight drive of one-third of the nation’s population.
