History
It is the third-tallest in Atlanta, reaching a height of 820 ft with 50 stories of office space with a total building area of 1,187,676 sq.ft.[5] When the slender concrete core was completed in October 1986, it was the tallest slipformed skyscraper in the country.[6] It was completed in 1987 and remained the tallest building in Atlanta until 1992, when it was surpassed by the Bank of America Plaza, which was built on the northern edge of Downtown adjacent to Midtown. It was also the tallest building in the southeastern U.S. at the time of completion, surpassing the Southeast Financial Center in Miami. In the 1990s, IBM, along with other large corporations, changed financial focus to leverage assets and decrease real estate holdings. IBM sold this property, along with others.
