About 100 North Main

100 North Main currently stands as the tallest building in Memphis, Tennessee. At 430 feet, (131m) it serves as 37 floors of office space. The building currently stands bordering Adams Street, North Second Street, and North Main. Finished in 1965, 100 North Main has remained a focal point of the Memphis riverfront skyline. The building was designed by Robert Lee Hall, the architect of Memphis' largest office building (based on square footage), Clark Tower, as well as Patterson Hall at the University of Memphis. 100 North Main is an almost identical, taller version of the 633 Building in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Due to its proximity to various municipal buildings, 100 North Main's tenant base has consisted primarily of attorneys, title companies, and various other professionals involved with government business and the courts. In 2006, it was priced for sale at $20 million. Due to limited demand for commercial office space in downtown Memphis, much office space began to decline in value. At 436,280 square feet (40,532 m), of which only 50% is currently occupied, 100 North Main would sell for approximately $46 per square foot.
