This tall building contains the offices of the Gulf Insurance Co. and also a hotel with 302 rooms and a car park. Its various floor levels are largely free of columns, and thus provide a highly diaphanous space, that is easily adaptable to various uses. This Tower is outstanding because of its height, in contrast with the largely horizontal development of the city of Jacksonville, and the beautiful light and shade effects of its external elevations, which give it a dynamic intrigueing quality. There is also a fine contrast between the dark tinge of the glazing and the white coloured structure.
