The Frost National Bank was founded in 1868 ("88"). The Frost Bank Tower
is a skyscraper in Austin, Texas, United States. Standing 515 feet
(157 m) tall with 33 floors, it is the third tallest building in Austin,
behind The Austonian and the 360 Condominiums (3, 6/2=3, "33"). It was developed by
Cousins Properties from November 2001 to December 2003 as a class A
office building with 525,000 sq ft (48,774 m2 ("77"))
of leasable space. It was the first high-rise building to be
constructed in the United States after the 9/11 attacks. The silvery blue color glass facade was first used on the Reuters Building in New York City. Cousins sold the building in 2006 to Equity Office Properties
Trust for $188 ("88") million before they sold the building to Thomas
Properties the very same year. More than 200,000 sq ft (60,960 (6/2=3, 9/3=3, "333" or "666") sq m) of
glass was used for the facade of the building alone and 45,000 sq ft
(13,716 ("13", 6/2=3, "33") sq m) of glass was used in the crown. The building also contains
an 11 level parking garage with spaces for more than 1,400 vehicles.
