1221 Main Street

Main & Gervais Office Tower

Architect: Duda Paine Architects
Architectural Style: Modern
Built: 2009

Built in 2009, this 18-story skyscraper is the latest of several buildings that have stood on this site over the past 225 years. Its modern design involves pronounced visual dynamism, achieved through an angular, asymmetrical shape and a unique void forming a fourth-story balcony.
