 * Baltimore, Maryland, Oldest Central Building of the YMCA constructed 1872–73, a triangular structure of five stories in "Second Empire" style architecture with brick and stone trim, slate mansard roof with large corner central tower and several smaller towers (later removed in early 1900s remodeling), at the northwest corner of West Saratoga and North Charles Street, on the northwest edge of downtown Baltimore. Former historic site of the first Roman Catholic Parish (1770) and Pro-Cathedral of St. Peter's in the new Diocese of Baltimore, which is the first established ("erected") diocese in America with first bishop John Carroll in 1789-90 (built of simple red brick, in Georgian/Federal style with attached rectory and surrounding cemetery), and served as America's first Cathedral until 1821 when the new Baltimore Cathedral designed by Latrobe, several blocks north was dedicated. Designed by famed local architects Neilson and Niernsee, just a few blocks east from where the local YMCA was first established in Baltimore in the 1850s.  Old Central YMCA was across Charles Street from the first church in the city and metropolitan area, Old St. Paul's Anglican (Episcopal) Church, founded 1692 in southeastern Baltimore County and later relocated to the southeast corner of Charles and Saratoga when Baltimore Town was first laid out in 1729–30. The Old 19th Century YMCA was later converted into offices in the 1920s when the Association moved several blocks north to West Franklin Street on "Cathedral Hill". On the northeastern edge of the massive downtown "urban renewal" project of "Charles Center" from 1958 to the middle 1970s, spared this unique structure although two elaborate marble/granite banks across West Saratoga Street to the southwest were demolished to be replaced by two twin apartment skyscraper towers and "Charles Plaza", with a movie theatre and commercial shops.  Additional interior restoration/renovation on the building was done in the early 1980s and again in 2013 when it was converted into apartments/condos.

The styling also brought a symbolic association with church architecture, making it fit into the YMCA's value system.
