Johns Hopkins Leases 60,000 sf from Orioles Chief Peter Angelos

BALTIMORE, MD-Johns Hopkins University has inked a deal to lease 60,000 sf of at One Charles Center, a 400,000-sf Class A office building at 100 N. Charles St. The university leases the structure from a familiar figure, Baltimore Orioles majority owner Peter G. Angelos, who is also the landlord of Johns Hopkins’ Downtown Center facility.

The space will house both The Fund for Johns Hopkins Medicine–the fundraising arm for the institution of medicine–and the School of Professional Studies in Business and Education. Speaking to GlobeSt.com, Johns Hopkins Director of Communications and Public Affairs Dennis O’Shea says, “The fund is moving from a building that’s on the medical campus and doing that will make additional room for faculty and research, which will allow for the creation of additional jobs in Baltimore.” In addition, the building is conveniently located near a Metro stop that will offer easy access for visitors. O’Shea says the relocation for the School of Business is advantageous because, “it’s across the street from Johns Hopkins Downtown Center on Charles Street, which is where we have classes for students in business. So [the administrative team and faculty] will be housed in offices across the street.”
