A building slated to be the future home to Shell’s Gulf of America headquarters is the first new Class-A office tower to be constructed in New Orleans since 1989 . Located at 1600 Convention Center Boulevard, the new headquarters will be a central landmark of the new 39-acre mixed-use neighborhood adjacent to the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, transforming one of New Orleans’ last pieces of vacant riverfront land into a hub of commerce, trade and culture.
