Dominion Tower is one of the major distinctive and recognizable features of Downtown Norfolk, Virginia, United States. Once the tallest building in the Hampton Roads metro area, it is now the tallest building in the City of Norfolk, having been surpassed by the mid-2000s construction of the Armada Hoffler Tower and Westin Virginia Beach Town Center tower in neighboring Virginia Beach. This 26 story tower is named after the state's nickname "The Old Dominion". Its opening and completion took place in 1987 and it is currently used for offices of various corporations.
In 2016, Bank of America moved its headquarters and signage to Dominion Tower. Bank of Hampton Roads previously held the top of building signage. [1]
