The original building was razed in 1907 and replaced by the Terre Haute Trust Company with an 8 story edifice.
Meanwhile son Arthur Baur moved the pharmacy to a new site at the northeast corner of 7th and Ohio. Later, Baur’s Pharmacy relocated to 661 Wabash where business was conducted for many years. In 1939 the pharmacy was sold to Albert Joab and subsequently to Benjamin Muncie and Stew Martin, who eventually closed the business in
1960.
Four of Mr. Baur’s children, Jacob, Charles, Arthur and Oscar also made their marks in Terre Haute. Jacob, fascinated as a youngster by carbonated “sodas” made in his father’s pharmacy, invented and marketed a carbonation process in 1888 which revolutionized the industry. In a nutshell he invented the soda fountain and hence founded the Liquid Carbonic Acid Manufacturing Company. Charles became the proprietor of the Terre Haute House for 9 years. Arthur managed Baur’s Pharmacy until his death in 1939. Oscar resurrected operations at the Terre Haute Brewing Company in 1934, which had been idle during 14 years of prohibition. By 1940 it was Indiana's largest brewery and at its peak employed over 900 people. Its Champagne Velvet brand was sold in all 50 states and production had grown from 30,000 barrels a year in 1868 to 202,000 barrels in the late 1930’s.
What began quietly as Baur’s Pharmacy in 1866 evolved into a legacy for the city of Terre Haute. A bronze nameplate of Baur’s Pharmacy along with information about the THBC, Champagne Velvet and Liquid Carbonics is on display at the Vigo County Historical Museum.
