History

The $5 million office building, built during a time of large insurance growth in Dallas, was constructed to serve as the southwestern regional home office for the Hartford Fire Insurance Group. [2] It was developed by Trammell Crow and Eugene Locke, and opened in 1960. [3] An incident occurred during construction in 1959, when a 20-foot (6.1 m) steel beam and a brick fell to street below from one of the upper floors. The beam pierced a truck and was embedded into the pavement and the brick bounced off a car below; amazingly, no one was injured. [4] The building's Bryan Street Garage with 400 spaces was replaced with a shared-use garage built for the adjacent Patriot Tower in 1981.

The building was sold in 1961, 1967, 1994, and 2013. [5]
