Freeport-McMoRan Center, Office skyscraper in Downtown Phoenix, United States
The Freeport-McMoRan Center is an office skyscraper in central Phoenix that rises 341 feet (104 meters) across 26 floors. The building features an all-glass exterior served by 14 elevators, with each floor providing large column-free spaces ideal for office layouts.
The building opened in 2009 and was the first major office tower constructed in Downtown Phoenix in eight years. This opening marked a turning point in the city center's development after a prolonged period of limited high-rise construction.
The building serves as headquarters for a major mining company and incorporates a hotel within its lower levels. Visitors can observe how modern office and hospitality spaces share the same structure when moving through the lobby and public areas.
The building is easily accessible from central Phoenix and located near public transportation options. Nine parking levels are available on-site, though availability may be limited during business hours when offices are fully occupied.
The glass facade incorporates vertical and horizontal fins that control sunlight while preserving clear views of the city beyond. This thoughtful design reduces heat buildup in the building while giving visitors pleasant outward views despite the fully transparent exterior.
