The Pyramids are three 11-story, pyramidal office buildings that are part of a 200-acre (810,000 m2) commercial development in the College Park neighborhood of Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. The structures occupy 40 acres (16 hectares) next to a 25-acre (10-hectare) lake. They were constructed between 1967 and 1972 by the College Life Insurance Company (now part of Americo Life) using a design by architect Kevin Roche. They are noted for the abstract quality of the opacity of the concrete walls that face the nearby highway and the reflectivity of the glass curtain walls that face the landscaped grounds.
