CLEVELAND | Key Tower | 948' Pinnacle / 888' Roof | 57 FLOORS | 1991

Key Tower is Cleveland's tallest at 948 ft/290m to the top of the spire (888 ft./271m to the top of the pyramidal crown), with a total of 63 floors (57 office, 6 maintenance). It's also the tallest skyscraper in the state of Ohio. Key Tower built in 1991 as Society Center and designed by Cesar Pelli and Associates. The art deco-influenced design shares similiarities to other Pelli designs of the era, including Bank of America in Charlotte, and the original proposal for the Norwest Tower in Minneapolis. The tower is clad in granite with stainless steel mullions and crown. In 2005, KeyBank added illuminated signage to the four sides of the crown:
