Crown Central Petroleum

Crown Central Petroleum Company or Crown, first began in 1917 in Harris County, Texas, when the New Crown Oil and Refining Company's Number 3 well struck oil.^{[citation needed]}

In 2013 Clark Brands acquired the brand licensing business of Crown Central Petroleum.^[1]

An abandoned Crown gas station was used in the production of House Of Cards, a Netflix original series.^[2] The building, in Churchville, Maryland, is currently still standing.

During the summer of 2006, many stations began to disappear.^{[citation needed]} All but about 20 stations were rebranded to either Texaco, Chevron Corporation, or Royal Dutch Shell gas stations. This is because the company sold these stations about two years ago, as reported in The Baltimore Sun.^{[citation needed]}

As of the Spring of 2022 20 Crown stations operate in the state of Maryland. There are four Crown branded stations operating in Baltimore, Maryland. All four stations utilized a standard self service canopy set up featuring a brick and tan stucco design. All four stations currently operate 24 hours a day. The stations can be found at 4201 Erdman Ave , 5101 York Rd, 501 E 33rd St and 4123 Frederick Ave
