“5 Canada Square is a 15-storey, 87.7 m (288 ft) office building in the Canary Wharf financial estate of London, England. 5 Canada Square was completed in 2003. The steel-framed building has an aluminum curtain wall and it features a large atrium on its south side with 46,450 m2 (500,000 sq ft) of floorspace. The principal tenant at 5 Canada Square is the European arm and HQ of Bank of America Securities. The building is used for the bank's global cash-management business for clients. Credit Suisse also occupies part of the building. In 2003, Royal Bank of Scotland (or RBS) bought 5 Canada Square along with 25 Canada Square, another Canary Wharf building, for a total of £1.1 billion from Canary Wharf, a major property firm that developed the facility. 5 Canada Square was originally leased by Credit Suisse First Boston but after a banking downturn and not needing the space, Credit Suisse let the space to Bank of America.” (5 Canada Square, Wikipedia)
