The Comcast Technology Center is a supertall skyscraper in Center City Philadelphia.[5][6] The 60-floor building, with a height of 1,121 feet (342 m),[7] is the tallest building in both Philadelphia and the state of Pennsylvania and the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere outside of Manhattan and Chicago.
The tower is located on the southwest corner of 18th and Arch Streets, one block west of the Comcast Center, the headquarters of Comcast Corporation. A hotel, representing the highest hotel in the nation,[8] and restaurant are located on the top floors. The building's central floors are offices for Comcast software developers and engineers, and the lowest floors have television studios and retail stores.[9][10]
Construction on the building began in mid-2014 and was completed on November 27, 2017.[8][10] The first personnel began moving into the building in late July 2018,[11] and the tower was open to the public in October of that year.[12]
