The Johns Hopkins University renovated this former department store, on Charles Street in Baltimore, as a center-city location for its School of Professional Studies in Business and Education in 2000, and determined in 2008 that the evolution of the school into the new Carey School of Business required a re-evaluation of the facility in anticipation of further growth and change in the school and its mission. This study, from program development through the completion of schematic design, focused on retaining as much as possible of the very successful initial renovation, while providing more classroom and office space, and much-needed student service and social spaces.
