This was a tough location to identify. This is one of those locations that the first time you look at them, we here at WhereWasItShot go “Now, that’s a location we need to find out”. One of the primary reasons for the same was that the building looked very unique among the regular skyscrapers one gets to see in the US. We knew, from our research during our earlier post on the William Waterwall, that the song was shot in Houston. So, we looked up the list of important buildings in Downtown Houston and then going through that list one by one, finally gave us the location that we were looking for.

About the location (from Wiki):
The Niels Esperson building is the only complete example of Italian Renaissance architecture in Downtown Houston. Designed by theater architect John Eberson, the Esperson buildings were built in 1927 and 1941, respectively. They are elaborately detailed with massive columns, great urns, terraces, and a grand tempietto at the top, similar to one built in the courtyard of San Pietro in Rome in 1502.

Mellie Esperson had the first of the two buildings constructed for her husband, Niels, a real estate and oil tycoon, and his name is carved on the side of the building, above the entrance, in large letters. The name “Mellie Esperson” is carved on the accompanying structure, known as the Mellie Esperson building, although it is really just a nineteen-story annex to the original Esperson building.
