Wells Fargo Tower
Wells Fargo Tower (Tower I), at 220 m (720 ft) it is the tallest building of the complex. It has 54 floors and it is the 7th tallest building in the Los Angeles, and the 92nd-tallest building in the United States. When it opened in 1983, it was known as the Crocker Tower, named after San Francisco-based Crocker National Bank. Crocker merged with Wells Fargo in 1986.
During initial construction it was featured in the 1983 film, Blue Thunder, and the top upper floors were not completed during filming, so Roy Scheider's character shot a helicopter chasing him from the unfinished top floor.

“To take pride in a library kills it. Then, its motive power shifts over to the critical if admiring visitor, and apologies are necessary and acceptable and the fat is in the fire.”

“With the noise of the mourning of the Swattish nation!
Fallen is at length
Its tower of strength;
Its sun is dimmed ere it had nooned;
Dead lies the great Ahkoond,
The great Ahkoond of Swat
Is not!”
—George Thomas Lanigan (1845–1886)
