There are 23 office floors and 12 parking levels in the {{convert|136|m|ft|adj=mid|-high}} tower, which is one of the tallest in Mexico City. The HSBC Tower is the first of its type of environmentally friendly buildings in Latin America. It was the first in Latin America to be given LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) gold certification from the US Green Building Council.[2] OpeningThe inauguration of the new head office took place on 5 April 2006, attended by President of Mexico Vicente Fox Quesada, the President's wife Marta Sahagún, Secretary of Finance Francisco Gil Diaz, Banco de México Guillermo Ortiz Martínez, HSBC Mexico CEO Sandy Flockhart, HSBC Group Chief Executive Stephen Green, HSBC Group Chairman Sir John Bond and Deputy Chairman and senior non-executive Director Baroness Dunn.

HSBC claim that the building will consume 55% less water and 40% less energy than comparable structures.[3] Credit Transforms to MexicoCredit Transforms to Mexico is a mural which was unveiled by President Fox and Sandy Flockhart in the reception area of the building.
