2100 Ross Avenue (simply 2100 Ross,[4] formerly San Jacinto Tower[3]) is a 33-story postmodern skyscraper located at 2100 Ross Avenue[1]/2121 San Jacinto Street[2] in the City Center District of downtown Dallas, Texas, in the United States. The structure stands at a height of 456 feet (139 m) and contains 844,000 square feet (78,400 m2) of office space.

In 2012, the building was bought for US$59 million by Cousins Properties, an Atlanta based real estate company.[8] In 2013, the company announced that they would renovate the building's interior.[9] The project includes lobby improvements, high-tech installations, and security upgrades. It was completed in 2014.[10]

The building was then owned by Thomas Dundon who purchased it in 2015 to house his financial firm Dundon Capital Partners.[11] He later sold the building in 2019 following the closure of the Alliance of American Football, a sports league in which he was heavily invested.[1][12]

In 2020, law firm Thompson Coburn moved to the building, occupied 23,177 square feet (2,153.2 m2) of its total floor area.[13]
