WELCOME STYLE :) , Welcome, AMAZING PICS, I was at the top of that SOUTHEST BANK Building When it first Opened in 1984 ( Okay SO I got MY YEARS Mixed up, I'm getting OLD ) and I still have the T-shirt they gave us for being at the TOP of the 55th Floor Observation Area, :) IT was AWESOME looking out All over MIAMI, Fantastic Building AND GREAT PICS, Thanks again STYLE !!! :cheers:

A stunning piece of modern architecture. It was designed by acclaimed architect Edward Charles Bassett of SOM and the building officially opened on July 16, 1984. When topped out in the summer of 1983, it surpassed the Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel in Atlanta as the tallest building south of New York City and east of the Mississippi River. It held the title until 1987. The tower was the headquaters of Southeast Bank, until it went into liquidation back in 1991.

It's a landmark, beautiful building.
