General view of One Charles Center; This Mies van der Rohe-designed tower was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000, one of the newest buildings in Baltimore to be so designated. Economic considerations dictated the use of reinforced concrete over steel for the frame of this project and is the first instance in which it appears in one of Mies's office buildings.
