The Brown Tobacco Warehouse is a historic warehouse building located in Louisville, Kentucky. The two-story brick structure was built in 1892. It was first occupied by John W. Brown & Brothers Tobacco Company. [2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. [1]

It has a two-story arched entrance for vehicles, with three narrower round-arched window bays on each side. The building is "representative of the architecture of the many tobacco warehouses built after the 1890 tornado." [2]
