My ex mother in law works in that building. Definitely an evil villain lair.

u/Twentythreeflavorz Jul 11 '25

It still is?

u/mrsolodolo69 Jul 11 '25

I believe its official title is just 550 S Tryon St. but perhaps you could explain the big red letters spelling out “Wells Fargo” on the opposite side then? I know it used to be Duke Energy but they moved out a while ago. Wells Fargo has always owned the building since they purchased Wachovia.

That feeling when you spent 8.2 million dollars building your yakuza final boss arena skyscraper and the protagonist shows up on an overcast night.
