Riverplace Tower, Mid-century modern skyscraper in Jacksonville, United States.
The Riverplace Tower rises 432 feet into the sky, featuring precast concrete beams that wrap around its exterior like interlocking fingers.
Upon its completion in 1967, the structure held the distinction of being the tallest precast, post-tensioned concrete building on earth.
The American Institute of Architects Florida recognized this building among the top 100 structures in the state during their 2012 assessment.
Eight elevators service the 28 floors of commercial space, with supporting beams extending 42 feet from the central core of the building.
The structural design incorporates concrete elements that taper and turn outward, creating a pattern that differs from standard rectangular towers.
