The corporate parent of First National Bank will relocate into a new mixed-use tower that’s set for development in downtown Raleigh.

Dubbed FNB Tower to honor the anchor tenant, the office and residential high-rise developed by Dominion Realty Partners at 501 Fayetteville St. will be fronting City Plaza. Construction at the site is scheduled to begin in December, with delivery anticipated in mid-2019. Once completed, the new office tower is expected to attain LEED Platinum certification.

With construction costs north of $100 million, the 22-story FNB Tower will bring a combination of style, innovation and efficiency to Raleigh’s thriving downtown area. The building will encompass more than 150,000 square feet of Class A office space, along with almost 240 apartment units and street-level retail. FNB’s Commercial Banking, Retail and Mortgage Banking, Wealth Management, Private Banking, Insurance and a variety of other departments will occupy more than 40,000 square feet of office space in the building. FNB also plans to open a retail banking office on the ground floor.

CBRE Raleigh will handle the commercial leasing of the remaining office and retail space, while Dominion Realty Partners will serve as property manager.
