The Bank of America Center, formerly the RepublicBank Center, NCNB Center and the NationsBank Center (also known as Spikey) in Downtown Houston, Texas is one of the first significant examples of postmodern architecture built in downtown Houston, characterized by a return to ornamentation and ironic reference to previous architectural styles. The signature gables adorning the building are inspired by canal houses in The Netherlands.
It is the 47th tallest building in the United States, and the seventh tallest building in Texas.
Bank of America Center is located at 700 Louisiana Street in Downtown and was constructed in 1983. It was designed by Philip Johnson and John Burgee of Johnson/Burgee Architects. It was developed and is managed by Hines Interests.
