Williams Tower is a highly visible building. At the time of its construction it was the tallest building in America outside of a downtown business district. The design suggests the stripped-down classicism of Bertram Goodhue’s Nebraska State Capitol.

the picture is backwards! This photo faces north and therefore the 610 "west loop" should be on the right side of the building...

Don't bother fixing it...it is correct as it is. The building is simply west of the west loop.

Chris,
It is correct now because we fixed it. We initially had the image reversed.
