| 説明 | 555 California Street, formerly Bank of America Center, and locally known as Triple Nickel, is a 52-story 779 ft (237 m) skyscraper in San Francisco, California. It is the second tallest building in the city and a focal point of the Financial District. Completed in 1969, the tower was the world headquarters of Bank of America until the 1998 merger with NationsBank, when the company moved its headquarters to the Bank of America Corporate Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. A 70 percent interest was acquired by Vornado Realty Trust from foreign investors in March 2007 with a 30 percent limited partnership interest still owned by Donald Trump, while continuing to be managed by the Shorenstein Company.555 California Street was meant to display the wealth, power, and importance of Bank of America. Design was by Wurster, Bernardi and Emmons and Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, with architect Pietro Belluschi consulting; structural engineering was by the San Francisco firm H. J. Brunnier Associates. The skyscraper has thousands of bay windows thanks to its unique design, meant to improve the rental value and to symbolize the bay windows common in San Francisco residential real estate. At the north foot of the skyscraper a plaza named in honor of Bank of America founder A.P. Giannini.In the plaza the 200-ton black Swedish granite sculpture "Transcendence" by Masayuki Nagare.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/555_California_Streeten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_... |
