First National Center is an Art Deco skyscraper in downtown Oklahoma City, designed by the Weary and Alford Company and completed in 1931 for the First National Bank and Trust Company. Rising 406 feet to its roof with a spire extending to 446 feet, the 33-story tower contains nearly 500,000 square feet of office space following a 2022 restoration that reconfigured its interior. Originally constructed with 451,000 square feet, the building underwent significant expansions in 1957 and 1972 before its recent remodeling. The tower's architectural design notably echoes the Empire State Building and is now the third tallest structure in Oklahoma City. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, First National Center connects to the surrounding downtown area through Oklahoma City's network of underground tunnels and elevated walkways.
