The Ernst & Young Tower is a skyscraper in downtown Cleveland, Ohio that stands on the east bank of the Flats completed in 2013.[1] It is an example of post-modern glass curtain and steel studded construction. The building rises 23 stories to a height of 330 feet (100 m) and offers 480,000 square feet (45,000 m2) of office space.[2] The major tenant was the accounting firm Ernst & Young which moved from the Huntington Bank Building to its new namesake tower in 2013.[3] Ernst & Young traces its roots back to the firm of Ernst & Ernst, which was established in 1903 in Cleveland.

The building is also the Cleveland office of these law firms: Cleveland-based Tucker Ellis, Zashin & Rich, and Columbus, Ohio-based Porter Wright Morris Arthur.[4] In addition to these major tenants the tower is home to the Cleveland-based metal chemical company OM Group, and is the Cleveland office of San Francisco-based financial corporation Wells Fargo[5] The tower has an attached Aloft Hotels-branded hotel with 150 guest rooms and the WXYZ bar.[6]
