Banco de América

The Banco de América rises 18 floors above the streets of Managua, displaying straight vertical lines and geometric patterns within its modernist design.

Edward Durell Stone, who designed the Museum of Modern Art in New York, created this building during Nicaragua's architectural development in the mid-20th century.

The building represents a fusion between American modernist architecture and Nicaraguan urban development, marking a period of economic growth in Central America.

Five elevators serve the building's office spaces, while the structure's location at 12.121667, -86.261389 places it in a central business district.

The building's design incorporates Stone's signature elements from his post-1950s period, marking a departure from strict International Style conventions.
