Bank of America Plaza, Office skyscraper in Charlotte, North Carolina, US
Bank of America Plaza is a 40-story office building rising 503 feet (153 meters) above Charlotte's downtown, with glass and steel facades that reflect the surrounding city. The structure contains about 891,000 square feet of space, including retail areas and parking facilities.
The building opened in 1974 as North Carolina National Bank headquarters and held the title of the state's tallest building until 1987. Its construction marked a turning point for Charlotte's skyline and the city's growth as a business center.
The ground-level shopping passage connects multiple downtown buildings through an elevated walkway system that locals and visitors use daily. These covered routes have become a central part of how people move through Charlotte's core without stepping outside.
The building is easily accessible from street level and has parking on-site and entry points to the pedestrian walkway system. Visitors can pass through the ground-level retail areas or enjoy views of the city from the lower sections.
Renovations in 2021 created a new tenant amenity space with modern shared facilities throughout the building. This transformation shows how the historic banking structure adapted to contemporary workplace needs.
