    This is the Baltimore Armory. I remember going there as a kid in the 50's when it was set up for a food convention. "The Fifth Regiment Armory was the site of the 1912 Democratic National Convention—an intensely contested event—which took 46 ballots to reach the required two-thirds majority of delegate voting to nominate Woodrow Wilson, a former Johns Hopkins graduate student and then governor of New Jersey." www.sos.state.md.us/MMMC/Armory.htm
