The James A. Rhodes State Office Tower is a 41-story, 629 ft (192 m) skyscraper on Capitol Square in downtown Columbus, Ohio. The Rhodes Tower was completed and occupied in 1974, and is currently the tallest building in Columbus and the fifth tallest in Ohio. Currently, approximately 4,000 state employees work in the building. Construction costs totaled approximately $66 million, and necessitated demolition of the Columbus Board of Trade Building and Spahr Building. 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 its height; originally, the building was supposed to be nearly 150 ft (46 m) taller.Rhodes Tower contains 1,200,000 sq ft (110,000 m2) of office space. The offices and courtroom for the Ohio Supreme Court were at one time located in the Rhodes Office Tower, having moved from the Judiciary 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 viewing downtown Columbus from the west.
