History
The building opened for business in 1972.[4] The property was originally named Winters Bank Tower and served as the headquarters for Winters Bank.

Kettering, changed the name to Kettering Tower.[2]
In 2005 a New York investment firm, Kettering Tower Partners LLC, bought the Kettering Tower for $21.9 million, or $45.63 per square foot.[5] The Kettering Tower owner defaulted on the mortgage and the property was sold to Bank of America for $10.8 million at a Montgomery County Sheriff's Auction in 2011.[6] In 2012, Albert Macanian of Dunkirk Realty, paid only $6.4 million for the property.[7]
