The building rises 25 floors and 340 feet (104 m) in height.[1] It is currently the 5th-tallest building in the city. [1] Designed by the architectural firm of Stageberg Beyer Sachs, Inc., the building was completed in 1985. It is essentially a modernist building, but it exhibits elements of the Postmodern style.
