Tremont Plaza Hotel
Baltimore, MD

A 37-story tower was transformed from a drab apartment building into an all-suite, business-class hotel and office building. On the exterior, a neo-classical facade of limestone and granite has replaced the original glass curtain wall. A crescent-shaped indentation in the facade at the main level allows ease of movement along an otherwise narrow sidewalk and, at the same time, entices visitors inside.

A rich and elegant lobby of marble, brass and mahogany is spatially connected through a double height entry to meeting rooms on the mezzanine above.

The project received a 1987 Baltimore Chapter AIA Design for Excellence Award Honorable Mention.
