The Oswald Tower is a skyscraper in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, formerly known as the Ernst & Young Tower.[1] It stands on the east bank of the Flats completed in 2013.[2] It is an example of post-modern glass curtain and steel studded construction. The building rises 23 stories to a height of 330 feet (100 m) and offers 480,000 square feet (45,000 m2) of office space.[3]

The major tenant was previously the accounting firm Ernst & Young, which moved from the Huntington Bank Building to the new and then-namesake tower in 2013.[4] Ernst & Young traces its roots back to the firm of Ernst & Ernst, which was established in 1903 in Cleveland. E & Y moved to the North Point Tower in 2023.
