Description
A skyscraper stands in the immediate vicinity of the Monument to soldiers and sailors 87 meters high, which was built in 1902. In addition, the top of the building is made in a pyramidal style, just like the memorial to the veterans of the First World War , located three blocks away. At the same time, the memorial itself, in turn, was built in the style of the Mausoleum in Halicarnassus .
Of the two spiers of buildings, only one performs the function of an antenna, while the second is purely decorative in nature.
Sometimes the top floors of a skyscraper are decorated with huge sports slogans “Forward, Pacers ” and “Forward, Colts ”.
In addition to the main tenant, JPMorgan Chase , the offices of Ernst & Young , (before 2004, after Bank (headquarters)) are rented here.

History
The idea of building a new skyscraper for his corporation was voiced by , chairman of American Fletcher Corporation , in the late 1970s.
The construction of the skyscraper began in 1987 on the site of the demolished Hume-Mansur Building (45 meters, 11 floors, 1911-1980) [2] , Board of Trade Building (33 meters, 8 floors, 1905-1982) [3] and Bankers Trust Building (35 meters, 7 floors, 1901—?) [4] .
The building was built as the headquarters of and, accordingly, had the design name American Fletcher Tower . However, even before the construction was completed, this bank was taken over by , so the name of the skyscraper was changed to Bank One Tower . But this corporation in 2004 was absorbed by the larger, JPMorgan Chase , so from the end of 2005 the building was named - Chase Tower . On May 6, 2016, Salesforce officially announced plans to rent most of the building’s premises and make it their headquarters [5] . Moving here the employees of this corporation began in early 2017, and soon the official name of the skyscraper was changed to the current one - Salesforce Tower .
