Bank of America Center

One of the first significant examples of postmodern architecture in Downtown Houston, the Bank of America Center is distinctive in its quality and stature. The fourth tallest building in Houston at 780 feet, the 56-story building was designed by Philip Johnson and John Burgee and completed in October 1983. Previously known as the RepublicBank Center, the NCNB Center and the NationsBank Center, the Class A tower is a pinnacle of architecture, delivering the quality office space and service in the Houston Theater District. Reminiscent of the Dutch Gothic architecture of canal houses in The Netherlands, the building features three segmented tower setbacks, each with a steeply pitched gabled roofline topped off with spires. The building features 32 passenger elevators finished with rare wood panels, an art gallery in the lobby and plans to host curated exhibitions. [Taken from JPMorgan Chase Tower Observation Deck]
