The space may have been bare bones. The gathering was anything but.
Leave it to the Baltimore Chapter of the American Institute of Architects and the Baltimore Architecture Foundation to throw its annual meeting and holiday party in an unfinished space at One Charles Center.
Some 200 folks from Baltimore’s design community gathered on the 2nd floor of the building to celebrate the season and the new AIA/BAF Center of Architecture and Design, which will open on the retail level of the building in Spring 2020.
