AT&T Building, Office skyscraper in Nashville, United States.
The AT&T Building is a 33-floor office tower in downtown Nashville that rises 138 meters into the air. Its dark glass facade and twin spires on the rooftop give the structure a recognizable profile in the skyline.
South Central Bell, a subsidiary of AT&T, moved into the completed tower in 1994 as its corporate headquarters. The opening marked an important step for the telecommunications industry in Tennessee.
Locals call this tower the Batman Building because its twin spires bring to mind the pointed ears of the hero's cowl from DC Comics. The nickname has become so common that visitors and residents use it more often than the formal name.
The tower stands at 333 Commerce Street in the financial district of Nashville. Visitors can see the skyscraper from many points around the city, especially from across the Cumberland River.
The base of the tower uses red granite while the upper floors rely on a reinforced concrete frame. This construction allows the interior walls in the office levels to be moved as needed.
