EverBank Center, Modern skyscraper in downtown Jacksonville, United States.
EverBank Center is a 447-foot (136 m) skyscraper occupying a full city block in Downtown Jacksonville. Its light gray panel facade rises in stepped setbacks along the left edge to a flat top, where the EverBank name and a red circular logo sit centered near the summit. Each floor holds 16 corner offices, and the entrance has a two-story atrium.
The building was constructed in 1983 on the site of the former Hotel Mayflower and initially served as Southern Bell Telephone's headquarters. Its completion marked an important shift in Jacksonville's emergence as a regional business hub.
The tower's name changed with its anchor tenants: Southern Bell, then BellSouth, AT&T, TIAA Bank and now EverBank, whose red circular logo sits near the top. In 2011 the city gave EverBank tax incentives to move over 1,200 employees into nine floors and add 200 jobs.
The building offers easy access with multiple elevators and an adjacent parking garage. Expect busier conditions during morning and midday hours when office workers are arriving and departing.
The tower was built for Southern Bell and opened in 1983; the following year AT&T's divestiture made Southern Bell part of BellSouth, and the rooftop signage changed with each owner, later reading AT&T and then TIAA Bank. The JTA Skyway central station stands across the street.
