US Bank Tower
Highlights
72-Story building
1,375,000 sf
Architecture by Pei Cobb Freed & Partners
Description
U.S. Bank Tower (formerly known as Library Tower) was developed in 1989 as part of the $1.0
billion Los Angeles Central Library Redevelopment Plan, which provided the bulk of the funds
for the restoration and expansion of the Los Angeles Central Library into an institution of international
stature, as well as the creation of the Maguire Gardens.
Designed by I.M. Pei & Partners, U.S. Bank Tower is neither round
nor square, offering an interlocking set of granite planes and curves that step down in a series
of terraces and ledges to colonnades of glass at the base. The lobby houses Unity, a giant mixed media mural
by Russian born artists Vitaly Komar and Alexander Melamid, that depicts the history of the City
of the Angels.
