Wells Fargo Center, Office skyscraper in Downtown Los Angeles, United States

The Wells Fargo Center is a skyscraper in downtown Los Angeles featuring two connected towers linked by a three-story glass atrium in the middle. The tallest tower rises 723 feet (220 meters) and holds 54 floors served by 26 elevators.

The building was constructed in 1983 as Crocker Tower and renamed in 1986 following a merger between Crocker National Bank and Wells Fargo. This change reflected the consolidation of major financial institutions operating in Los Angeles.

The complex takes its present name from Wells Fargo, which absorbed Crocker National Bank in 1986; the north tower had opened in 1983 as Crocker Tower. A branch of the Wells Fargo History Museum was housed in the center. Cultural critic Fredric Jameson cited the Crocker Bank Center, by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, as an example of postmodern "depthlessness", describing its free-standing wall of windows as a surface seemingly unsupported by any volume.

The complex stands on Bunker Hill between the towers' shared three-story glass atrium and the surrounding downtown streets; the towers are working offices, not open to the public. The Wells Fargo History Museum branch that once operated at the center is no longer listed among its facilities. Look up from the street to read the gold "WELLS FARGO" letters near the flat top of the taller tower.

Cultural critic Fredric Jameson cited the Crocker Bank Center, as it was then called, as an example of Postmodern architecture's "depthlessness", describing its free-standing wall of windows as a surface seemingly unsupported by any volume. He compared the effect to the monolith in Kubrick's 2001.
