The Fourth & Walnut Center (or Centre) is a Chicago School building in Cincinnati, Ohio. Developed by Cincinnati's First National Bank, it was originally named the First National Bank Building. Daniel Burnham of D.H. Burnham and Company was the building's architect. It was the tallest building in the state from its completion in 1904 until 1913, when it was surpassed by the Union Central Building. The structure was known as the Clopay Building from 1981 until 1991 in honor of the Clopay Corporation, a tenant. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017. In 2024, the Cincinnati City Council approved a plan by Supreme Bright Cincinnati LLC to convert the tower into a mixed-use hotel and apartment building, with completion scheduled for 2027.
