The Thompson Building is a historic high-rise building in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The building rises 215 feet (66 m) in downtown Tulsa. It contains 15 floors, and was completed in 1923. The First National Bank Building currently stands as the 17th-tallest building in the city, and the 36th-tallest building in the state of Oklahoma. The architect who designed the building was Arthur M. Atkinson.

The Thompson Building was originally constructed as a 10-story low-rise commercial building in 1923. Five additional floors were built in 1929, six years after the completion of the original structure, bringing the high-rise to its present height. The building was constructed in the Beaux Arts architectural style, and is the 2nd-tallest Beaux Arts high-rise in Tulsa, after the Mayo Hotel.
