skyscraper located at 500
Grant Street in
downtown Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania. Announced on March 27, 1980, the tower was completed in June 1984. It is the second-tallest building in the city and was initially planned to be the world headquarters of the
Dravo Corporation (now
Carmeuse Corporation) by its majority owner at the time and current neighbor
U.S. Steel. From its inception until 2007, the building housed the global headquarters of the
Mellon Financial Corporation, until the company merged with
Bank of New York. The resulting corporation,
The Bank of New York Mellon, uses the building as one of its major offices. The building was named
One Mellon Center until 2008, when it was renamed as part of a branding initiative by The Bank of New York Mellon.
