It is the 15th tallest building in the city. A unique radient heating and cooling system is contained in the ceiling: since there are no pipes, radiators, or air conditinoning units along the extior walls, an additional convert|15000|sqft|m2 of rentable space was gained. Also the windows rotate 360 degrees so they can be washed from th inside. The aluminum walls of the building are 1/8 inch thick, this gives the building a very light weight and economical design. It was the first skyscraper with an all-aluminum facade.
