The JPMorgan Chase Tower, located at 2200 Ross Avenue in the City Center District of downtown Dallas, Texas (USA) is a 55-story postmodern skyscraper. Standing at a structural height of 738 feet (225 m), it is the fourth tallest skyscraper in Dallas. (If one were to exclude antennas and spires, it would currently be the third tallest building in Dallas.) It is also the 12th tallest building in Texas. The building was designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and was completed in 1987.

This building is known for its unique architecture which includes a curved glass top and a 7-story hole in the center of the building near the top. The base of the keyhole features an observation "Skylobby" (open to the public Monday through Friday, 9am-5pm) accessed via a direct elevator from the lobby. The skylobby includes fountains and decorative plants.
