Bank of Albuquerque Tower is a 22-story skyscraper located at 201 3rd Street NW in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico. At 107 m (351 ft), it is by far the tallest building in both the city of Albuquerque and the state. It was built in 1990 as part of the Albuquerque Plaza mixed-use complex on the south side of Civic Plaza, which also includes the Hyatt Regency Albuquerque hotel. The height and distinctive pyramidal roofs of the two towers make them the focal point of the Albuquerque skyline. The architectural firm responsible for the project was Hellmuth, Obata, & Kassabaum.
