This building is known for its unique architecture which includes a curved glass top and a 7-story hole in the center of the building near the top. The base of the keyhole features an observation sky lobby window that is open to the public Monday through Friday, 9am-5pm, with accessed via a direct elevator from the ground floor lobby. The sky lobby includes fountains and decorative plants. The Jack Mitchell, Inc. Edsel automobile dealership was located on this building's site in 1957. Trammell Crow and Hines Interests Limited Partnership bought the building in 2007. Deloitte LLP has an office in the tower which had 950 employees in late 2009. In early 2009 Deloitte announced that it planned to consolidate its Downtown operations and its operations in Irving, Texas. Initially, there would have been a multi-million dollar advantage to Deloitte if it moved to Irving. The City of Dallas proposed an economic grant to Deloitte if it decided to stay in Downtown Dallas. Therefore, Deloitte agreed to extent its lease in the tower for ten years, beginning in 2011. Deloitte will have at least 1,111 employees in the JPMorgan Chase Tower. |
