The Bank of America Center (formerly the RepublicBank Center, NCNB Center, and NationsBank Center) is a 780-ft, 56-story office building located in downtown Houston, Texas.

Completed in 1984 and designed by award-winning architect Phillip Johnson and partner John Burgee, it is one of the first significant examples of postmodern architecture built in downtown Houston.

The tower, developed and owned by Hines Interests, is the 51st tallest building in the United States and is the seventh tallest building in Texas.

It was chosen as a "landmark" in SimCity 3000 as "700 Louisiana" (actual address), one of the relatively few buildings to be picked and the only one in Houston.
