New Orleans Center
[edit]What name is the building commonly known by locals as "New Orleans Center" listed here as? Wondering, -- Infrogmation 18:42, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- Are you referring to the New Orleans Centre mall? If so, the attached high-rise is listed as Dominion Tower, which is its last active name. As Dominion is no longer a tenant, the building will certainly receive a new name when it reopens. VerruckteDan 17:11, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
- Dominion Tower is now Benson Tower. Bmhs823 (talk) 17:50, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Notes column
[edit]I removed recently added information in the Notes column of the main "Tallest buildings" list. The data was interesting and encyclopedic, but is much better suited for individual building articles and not sourced by the refs provided. Per WP:SKY standards, the Notes column should be reserved only for cited information directly relating to building heights; information on architects, tenants, corporate headquarters, location, etc. make the tables far too crowded, so the data should be reserved for the individual articles.

Tallest Building Timeline
[edit]Why isn't St. Stephen's Catholic Church on this list? It is the tallest Church in New Orleans. St. Stephen's Catholic Church is 200-feet high and was completed in 1906. It should be the tallest building on this list before the completion of the Roosevelt New Orleans.Wilkyisdashiznit (talk) 07:04, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
