The Robert B. Atwood Building is a 265-foot (81 m), 20 story office building located in Downtown Anchorage, Alaska, and is the second-tallest building in Alaska.[2]. The building houses government offices for the State of Alaska. Originally intended to be taller, it was limited in height by the FAA due to its proximity to Merril Field Airport. The building was formerly known as the Bank of America Center. Together with the slightly taller Conoco-Phillips Building, this high-rise helps define the Anchorage skyline.
