Good luck removing that. The HVAC and elevator penthouses are contained within the pyramid. I noticed on a cold morning, steam coming from the tip of the pyramid, so that what is inside of it. It actually ahs a use besides looks alone.


I think LED lights that change colors and could do crazy lighting schemes, sort of like xmas lights.

Perhaps they could light the tip of the pyramid like the Luxor in Vegas.

That'd actually be pretty cool looking.

I thought it was empty but I was wrong; I guess elevator machinery housing, a/c's, etc. is normally on the roof top of most buildings; and BOA is no exception.

Wow...Those Hong Kong pics are nice!!

My favorite city that I have been to...
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

Any updates or discussion?

I can't believe I dug this up from last year.

if i recall correctly, i had read they applied and recieved approval to add signage to the top of the building as well, not sure what happened with that

reednavy

Please don't disgrace this very bold building with a BOA sign!

Where are they going to put it then?

i'll see if i can find the article again, i belive the signage was going to go into the indentations towards the top of the building, they were requesting that they be larger than what the city currently allows due to the building being taller and needing larger signage in order for it to be visable

When the tower was built, I had assumed Barnett logos would go into the indentations because they would've fit, more or less.  A BOA sign would look ridiculous.
The tourist would realize at once that he had struck the Land of Flowers - the City Beautiful!

Just light the top and forget about the signage.


The building is so dark at night you hardly know its there...

Where are you BofA???






Oh, there you are!









Beautiful during the day....

Just spoke to the property manager of the BofA Tower and again asked about the lights. She said they were trying to be green. I said, "you can do better than that". She then told me to contact the owners of the tower. So this tower is going to stay dark. Sad!

That last shot of the Landing, BOA and Modis buildings is awesome.
