Thank you Jones!
Thank you Jones Hall for the Performing Arts for making such a lovely frame for 600 Travis - JP Morgan Chase Tower being the tallest building in Houston. That means it is pretty danged tall.
Blurb about 600 Travis:
The JPMorgan Chase Tower, formerly Texas Commerce Tower, is a 305.4 m (1,002 ft), 75-story, 2,243,013 sq.ft skyscraper at 600 Travis Street in Downtown Houston, Texas. It is currently the tallest building in the city, the tallest building in Texas, the tallest five-sided building in the world, the 18th tallest building in the United States, and the 107th tallest building in the world.
The sky lobby observation deck is located on the 60th floor. The sky lobby acts as a transfer point for persons traveling to the upper (61-75) floors, but also as an observation deck for the building tenants during the working hours of 8:00 a.m. — 5:00 p.m. Monday–Friday, free of charge. One can take the express elevator, providing a panoramic view of the city of Houston thanks to the use of wide glass spans and thirteen-foot ceilings. (Side note – I’ve been on the 60th floor. Mind boggling. I’ve also been in the building when it storms – there is a barely perceptible sway during heavy winds.)
Thank you Jones!
