'''Bankers Hall''' is a building complex located in Downtown Calgary. It consists of two 52 story office towers; the East one was built in 1989 and is located at 855 2 St SW and the West one was built in 2001 and is located at 888 2 St SW. They are the tallest twin buildings in Calgary. The first four floors are a shopping mall, and is connected to The CORE Shopping Centre via a 15+ skywalk. The fire alarm system was upgraded in 2001 after the second tower was built. | '''Bankers Hall''' is a building complex located in Downtown Calgary.
