Abramovitz, Harris & Kingsland designed the building following a modernist architectural style. The AEP Building is the 8th tallest building in Columbus. It has served as the headquarters of the American Electric Power (AEP) since they relocated from New York City in 1983. At the front of the building are two sculptures created by George Greenamyer.
