This red granite clad skyscraper sits on a block where the two street grids in Downtown Dallas come together. WZMH Group designed the building to relate to both grids. The base of the building aligns with the grid that is turned 45 degrees, while the tower aligns with John Neely Bryan's original street grid of Dallas which is roughly turned 15 degrees. At the 43rd floor, the tower begins a series of step backs that are turned on an angle with the 45 degree tilt. The building is 655 feet tall and has 50 floors. It is the 7th tallest building in the City of Dallas. The top of the building is illuminated at night.
