The nearby US Bank Tower (design architect: Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, Ellerbe Becket, Inc.) - the tallest building in the United States west of the Mississippi River, designed to withstand an earthquake of 8.3 on the Richter Scale, with the highest helipad in the world on the roof, and the first building to be destroyed by alien invaders in the 1996 movie "Independence Day."  The tower has four glass-crowned setbacks, at the 48th, 57th, 61st, and 69th floor levels.
