The 13-story United Steelworkers Building, also known as Five Gateway Center, was originally called the IBM Building. It is notable for its diamond-lattice load-bearing exterior walls, considered innovative and daring in 1961-1963 when the building went up. The structural engineers, John Skilling and Leslie Robertson, later engineered the twin towers of New York's World Trade Center.
