Entergy Tower (also known as One Poydras Plaza), located at 639 Loyola Avenue in the Central Business District of New Orleans, Louisiana, is a 28-story, 360-foot-tall (110 m) skyscraper.

The building used to have the Consulate-General of Japan in New Orleans.[2] In 2006, the Japanese Government announced that it was moving the consulate to Nashville, Tennessee.[3] The diplomatic mission was relocated to be closer to industries and operations owned by Japanese companies.[4]
