In 1956 construction began on National Bank of Commerce Tulane Avenue branch near Jefferson Davis Parkway.
Architects Curtis and Davis designed the office building with ample natural light for the 7300 SF of office space on each of the six floors. The cantilevered zig zag entrance canopy provided minimal ornamentation to an otherwise simplistic facade.
Construction was completed in 1958 by R.P. Farnsworth and Company.
