The Bank of America Tower

The first glimpse of this spectacular building was on the road to Manhattan from JFK. I expected to see the famous Chrysler and Empire State buildings first, but the Bank of America Tower surprised me. It was only constructed in 2009. With its glass facade, sheer height and magnificent aerial that changes color every few seconds, it is definitely one of my favorite skyscrapers. It has a height of 1,200 feet, equivalent to 365 m. Its central location in the 6th to the 42th area, in the heart of Midtown, makes it visible from many New York landmarks.
