Chase Tower

Chase Tower is an office skyscraper completed in 1987 in downtown Dallas with 55 floors of glass and steel construction on Ross Avenue. The building features an executive conference center, tenant fitness facilities, and connects directly to the downtown pedestrian tunnel system.

The building was completed by the architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in 1987 as a landmark for Dallas's growing economy. It marked a significant phase in the modernization of the downtown area.

The Dallas Petroleum Club once occupied the 39th and 40th floors, serving as a major gathering place for business executives and industry leaders. This space was central to the social life of the city's corporate world.

Visitors can view the building from the exterior and easily spot its distinctive architectural feature. The direct connection to downtown's pedestrian tunnels makes it convenient to include in a walking tour of the area.

The building earned the informal nickname Keyhole Building because of a distinctive six-story opening near its top. This unusual architectural feature makes it instantly recognizable in the Dallas skyline.
