Sede do BankBoston

Sede do BankBoston, Commercial skyscraper in Vila Cordeiro, São Paulo, Brazil.

The Sede do BankBoston is a 35-story, 145-meter office tower on the Marginal Pinheiros in Brooklin, São Paulo. Its staggered granite, metal and glass facade was designed by Skidmore Owings Merrill, and the building was constructed by Hochtief. Inside are offices for 3,000 employees, a 500-seat cafeteria, a 300-seat auditorium and meeting rooms.

Hochtief, a German builder, was chosen for BankBoston's new Brazilian headquarters on a plot along the Marginal Pinheiros; work began in May 1999 (the French source says May 2000) and lasted 28 months, finishing in 2002 at a cost of about US$65 million. The building was sold to Banco Itaú in 2006 after BankBoston merged with Fleet Bank and ceased to exist as a separate entity.

The tower's staggered granite, metal and glass facade was designed by Julio Neves, who declined to comment on the condominium project. The complex shares its plot with a Hyatt hotel and an office tower of ACD, the company of Alcides Diniz, former shareholder of Grupo Pão de Açúcar; Diniz received the land next to the new Rede Globo headquarters as compensation.

The tower stands in Brooklin near the Marginal Pinheiros, the expressway along the Pinheiros River in southern São Paulo. The complex was planned with a green area beside the building, and the site sits next to the new Rede Globo headquarters. The building is a working corporate office, so visits are tied to the businesses and institutions housed there.

The tower's staggered granite-and-glass facade was designed by Julio Neves, who led the architectural design of the wider condominium beside the new Rede Globo headquarters. The land had belonged to Alcides Diniz, former shareholder of the Pão de Açúcar group, who received it as compensation.
