Obviously, built way before BofA was around here, but now referred to by online sources as the Bank of America Building.

LOL, sometimes it seems like Detroit is the only city without a BOA building.  That's ok though...I'd rather see Comerica Bank in the city as opposed to BOA any day.

I am sure Detroit has a BOA building somewhere, it just doesn't have a BOA building which is signature, stands out, and has a comandeering presence as in most United States cities.

Seattle's BoA building is delightful.....

Charlotte's BoA building is stunning....

Most are appealing in their own way.

Wow, Columbia has a BofA, but Detroit doesn't. So Sad..... I think Charlotte's is awesome. I have seen it many times.

Looks are deceiving. It is surrounded by very tall buildings between 600-870 ft.

People say that Atlanta somehow "cheats" with the very nice spire on top to gain the 1,028 ft. height but if that is the case then the one in Charlotte is also a cheat with all those little points and rods on top. Charlotte's is a very cool BOA building but almost too big for the city itself. Without Hearst it would really look all alone.
