Frankfurter Büro Center is one of Frankfurt’s first high-rise buildings. The Grande Dame boasts an impressive size, making it a striking feature in the heart of the city. Its form gives the banking district a clear classic line. Due to its excellent location between the banking district and Westend, the skyscraper can be seen from afar and serves as a prominent landmark in the city’s skyline.

The architecture of Frankfurter Büro Center, the so-called “International Style”, also characterises numerous other renowned sister buildings.
