Rhodes State Office Tower
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The James A. Rhodes State Office Tower is a 629-foot skyscraper located in Columbus, Ohio. The Rhodes Tower, completed in 1977, is currently the tallest building in Columbus. It is named after Ohio's longest serving governor, James A. Rhodes. The building's odd shape is attributed to a last-minute decision to cap the buildings height; originally, the building was supposed to be nearly 150 feet taller. The building, located across Broad Street from the Ohio Statehouse, contains several state offices. In addition, the offices and courtroom for the Ohio Supreme Court were at one time located in the Rhodes Office Tower, having moved from the Judicary Annex of the Statehouse. The court left the building for its own facility, the Ohio Judicial Center, in 2004. The Rhodes State Office Tower is located right behind the LeVeque Tower when looking toward to the East.
