Frost Bank Tower
Look up at the Frost Bank Tower’s distinctive glass crown during a downtown architecture walk. The main visitor experience is exterior observation, not access to an observation deck.
The tower offers a clear example of how a commercial high-rise can become a city landmark through its silhouette. From the street, compare the crown with the building’s lower arcade and the surrounding older facades. It suits a short, deliberate look rather than a destination with a long interior itinerary.
