I'm not sure if this is the Chase Tower but if it's the one with the observation deck then it's cool as hell

Questions & Answers

If its not open to the public then why is it on top things to do in Houston? That's my question.

Very good question which I do not have an answer to; did not know it was on that list. I just worked there for multiple years when it was first built. At that time it was the tallest building in Houston & I believe that the observation deck was open for certain people at that time period. The highest floor I remember going up to was before our offices were complete so we could give input as to things we believed would make our work space more useful. We went up to 45th floor and looked down and out and we could see as far as the San Jacinto Monument. It was pretty cool looking but it was a long time ago & the sky was a lot clearer then.

The observation deck is no longer open to the public as of early 2019 The observation desk has been closed to the public. Search the internet for “Where are all of Houston’s Observation Decks” to read the Houston Chronicle article about it closing.

It was shut down to the public about 2 years ago and I haven't heard of it opening back up to the public. If you have a Chase account with them, they may let you up.

The observation deck has been closed to the public for a while more, therefore cannot be accessed by outsiders.

Just walk in the front (where the ridiculous metal sculpture is) and go to the elevators directly behind the security desk, and then get in one and push 60.
