Pei IS responsible for Chase in Houston though.

Wow, that dude (who just passed away in March) had one hell of an illustrious career.
Wikipedia lists buildings "for which Cobb was principally responsible" and the list includes several of my all-time favorites (in addition to the Hancock Tower in Boston and Fountain Place in Dallas), including Place Ville Marie in Montreal and Library Tower in Los Angeles. He also designed the UCLA Anderson School of Management's fantastic campus-within-a-campus.
