Designed by architect Ed Kado, the Bank of the West Tower is being built by Tskakopoulos Investments. When completed it will be a 25-story structural steel frame high-rise in downtown Sacramento with a 10-level, 800 stall parking garage. The building consists of a 3-story grand entrance lobby, ground floor retail, office space, and a 2-level penthouse restaurant and meeting facility. Represents one of the tallest office towers in Sacramento's Capitol Mall.
