Legg Mason Building

What’s Missing?  From this perspective you might mistake Baltimore’s (and Maryland’s) tallest building for another building of similar design: the world trade center in Baltimore.   While they look very similar from three sides, you can usually tell the difference because the world trade center is a five sided building. In fact, it’s the world’s tallest five  sided building.  So that means that this must be the FORMER Legg mason building / USF&G building.   What’s missing?  The Legg Mason sign on top of the building is what’s missing.   Considering the skyline’s loss of the Maryland National sign and the Alex.Brown sign, a 500 foot tall invading monster would have a much harder time getting around modern Baltimore than they would have had in 1995.
