Reference to this structure being the "tallest building West of the Mississippi" was removed. The Smith Tower of Seattle, Washington (1914) held that distinction at 42 floors. The Smith-Young Tower of San Antonio was not completed until 1929 and has only 30 floors.IceBRG (talk) 22:02, 6 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

I suggest that the bottom of this page be updated to reflect that the Tower of the Americas is not in fact considered a building but actually a structure. So where the final section shows that the Tower Life Building was the “Tallest Building in San Antonio” from 1929-1968 and succeeded by The Tower of the Americas, this is technically incorrect. The Tower Life Building actually remained the tallest building in SA for almost 60 years, from 1929 to 1988 when the Marriott Rivercenter Hotel opened May 1988.KarlderGrosse843 (talk) 05:07, 28 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
