Baltimore will lose its largest gay nightclub when new owners start converting Grand Central at 1001-1003 N. Charles Street to an office building with retail space at street level.

The nearly 15,000-square-footclub changed hands on Feb. 28, following former owner Don Davis’ decision to retire and move out of state. A purchase price was not disclosed.

Davis posted a note on Facebook stating that Grand Central’s sale was finalized on Feb. 28, but did not give many details.
