Wells Fargo Center

Wells Fargo Center is a 26-story office tower rising just under 130 meters in downtown Salt Lake City. The building's exterior combines glass and granite, creating a clean modern appearance that stands out in the city skyline.

The building was completed in 1998 as American Stores Tower and changed names through several property ownership transitions. Each change reflected broader shifts in the corporate landscape of Salt Lake City.

The building served as headquarters for the Salt Lake Organizing Committee during the preparation phase of the 2002 Winter Olympics.

The tower is centrally located and easily walkable from nearby streets, with good access to downtown public transit. Parking options are available in the surrounding area for those arriving by car.

The rooftop contains two helipad landing zones that function as the American Stores Heliport, enabling direct helicopter access. This aerial infrastructure is uncommon in the downtown area and sets this tower apart from typical office buildings.
