The Torre BBVA Bancomer ("BBVA Bancomer Tower") is a skyscraper on Paseo de la Reforma in Colonia Juárez, Mexico City. It is the headquarters of BBVA Bancomer, Mexico's largest bank. Upon its completion in 2015 it became the second tallest building in Mexico City at 235 metres (771 ft) and 50 stories high. However by 2018 it is expected to be the fourth tallest in Mexico, after Torre KOI, Torre Reforma and Punto Chapultepec.[1][2]
