City Tower, Corporate skyscraper in downtown San Antonio, United States.
City Tower is a 22-story skyscraper in downtown San Antonio with a modern glass facade that stands out in the city center. The building stretches upward and houses multiple floors of office spaces with contemporary design elements throughout.
The structure was completed in 1975 by Charles Luckman Associates as the primary headquarters for Frost Bank operations. Banking operations moved out in 2019, marking the end of nearly 45 years of service to the financial sector.
The building's transition from banking headquarters to civic center reflects how downtown San Antonio has shifted its economic focus. Today, it serves as a hub where residents interact with city services in a modern office setting.
The building sits prominently on West Houston Street and is easy to spot in the downtown area due to its height. Inside, the layout provides clear navigation through open floor plans designed for administrative efficiency.
The conversion of this former banking center into a municipal building was one of San Antonio's largest government office consolidation efforts. This transformation brought numerous city departments together in a single location for the first time.
