Constitution Center, Office skyscraper in Southwest Washington, DC, United States
Constitution Center is an office skyscraper in Southwest Washington that spans an entire city block with a glass exterior and rises across ten floors. The building integrates office space with interior courtyard areas designed for occupants.
Edward Durell Stone designed the building in 1968 as the original headquarters for the United States Department of Transportation. The structure was repurposed for other office uses after 2007.
The central courtyard displays a light sculpture called 'Transformation' alongside artworks by Richard Deutsch and Stephen Knapp positioned throughout the interior spaces.
