The Sanitary Laundry Company Building is a historic building located at Baltimore, Maryland, United States. It is a five-bay wide, five-story brick loft building constructed in 1883. The façade features a cast-iron storefront at street level and the elaborate decorative brickwork and terra cotta ornamentation on the upper floors reflect the influence of the Queen Anne style.[attribution needed] It was built originally as a slaughterhouse and meat packing plant until 1897, when it was converted to a commercial laundry.[2]

The Sanitary Laundry Company Building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[1]
