Towson Commons, a Class A office tower located at 1 W. Pennsylvania Ave in downtown Towson,
recently gained a new high profile law firm tenant when Whiteford, Taylor & Preston LLP
signed a lease for 10,000 square feet on the third floor of the building.
Whiteford, Taylor & Preston LLP, one of Maryland’s largest law firms with over 160
attorneys, chose the building as the location for its new offices in Towson. They join a
mix of tenants including VIPS, a leading provider of healthcare data management, other law
firms and insurance and financial institutions. Towson Commons is also home to several
popular retail tenants including Kyodai Rotating Sushi Bar, Paolo’s Ristorante, and the
AMC Theatres cinema. The ten story tower features an attached 900 car parking garage and
is located within walking distance to the Baltimore County Courthouse and offices of the county
executive. The building is currently 93% leased.
"We are delighted to be moving into a signature building in the heart of Towson,"
said Scott Barhight, the incoming head of the office and chair of the Land Use group at
Whiteford, Taylor & Preston.
“Whiteford Taylor & Preston is a great addition to the building further enhancing
the Class A status of Towson Commons,” said Harvey Brooks, vice president/general manager
