Baltimore began as a trading post for tobacco and sugar, but quickly converted into an industrial city towards the end of the 19^th century.  Workers came to Baltimore in droves to take up high-paying jobs in the steel, shipping, and auto manufacturing factories. Today, Baltimore is a thriving cultural hub and is home to major companies like Black & Decker as well as T. Rowe Price.
