Bangladesh Bank Building

Bangladesh Bank Building, Central bank office building in Motijheel, Bangladesh.

The Bangladesh Bank Building is a 31-floor tower in Motijheel, Dhaka, and the headquarters of Bangladesh Bank. It is one of the earliest high-rises in the city. Sources give its height as 115 metres (377 ft) in English and 101 metres (331 ft) in Bengali.

The Bangladesh Bank Building was completed in 1985, not begun then, and served as the headquarters of Bangladesh Bank in Motijheel. It stood as the tallest building in Bangladesh for 27 years, until City Centre Dhaka topped out at 171 metres in 2012. The English and Bengali sources give different heights, 115 and 101 metres, for its 31 floors.

The building is the seat of Bangladesh Bank, the country's central bank, in the Motijheel business district. Its 31 floors hold the headquarters staff of the institution that issues the taka and supervises the country's banks. Visitors see a tower that has stood at the centre of Dhaka's financial district since the 1980s.

The building is located in the commercial district of Motijheel and is easily accessible by public transportation. Keep in mind this is an administrative building, so entry may be restricted or require certain formalities.

For 27 years until 2012, this building held the title of Bangladesh's tallest structure before City Centre Dhaka surpassed it. This period shaped the site's identity as a symbol of the nation's economic progress.
