Description
Architect: Preston M. Geren & Associates
- Imploded on March 18, 2006.
- There where many plans to convert the long vacant Landmark Tower into residential tower which was vacant since 1990. The Tower was being reconstructed when it was damaged by a F-3 Tornado on March 28, 2000. The tower had too many structural problems to be converted into a residential tower, the owner went bankrupt.
- the Building had a large revolving 4 faced clock on top of the tower. The sign itself was about 32 feet tall and about 45 feet across each side. The sign quit revolving in 1978 and finally stopped running in the late 1980's to early 1990's. After the Tornado Hit the tower the clock was removed due to unsafe conditions.
