The Lexington Financial Center, locally known as "Fifth Third" or the "Big Blue Building", is a Script error: No such module "convert".,[1] Script error: No such module "convert"., 31-floor high-rise in Lexington, Kentucky. It is located between Vine Street and Main Street at South Mill Street. Its exterior features blue tinted glass that has become an identifying symbol for the downtown.[2]

It was originally proposed as a 26-story skyscraper in 1984 across from the Vine Center and replaced the failed project, the Galleria.[3]

$7.5 million in state aid was announced by then-Governor Martha Layne Collins towards the construction of a six-level parking structure that would serve Triangle Center and the Lexington Financial Center.[4]

Construction was completed in 1987. Upon completion, it housed the Webb Company, the Bank of Lexington, Sherman, Carter, Barnhart Architects and a law firm.[5] Today, it houses the Fifth Third Bank among other financial institutions, including Kentucky Employers' Mutual Insurance[6]
