governing_body = The First National Bank Building is a historic building located at 217-233 Central Avenue NW in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico. The nine-story, L-shaped building was the city's first skyscraper. Built in 1922, the First National Bank Building was designed by Trost & Trost, an El Paso architecture firm that was well-known in the region. At 43 m (141 ft), it was by far the tallest building in the city until the International Style Simms Building was built in 1954. The interior of the first floor is done almost entirely in grey streak marble, and features 28 foot tall vault ceilings.
Currently, the building is being remodeled into a high-end loft apartment project called The Banque Lofts.
The basement floors are currently home to a secured server colocation facility, Prism Technologies.
