About Benson Tower

Benson Tower sits at the heart of New Orleans' Central Business District, a 26-floor office skyscraper completed in 1989. Formerly known as Dominion Tower and CNG Tower, it was renamed Benson Tower in 2009 after its purchase by Tom Benson. The building is part of a connected complex that includes the Mercedes‑Benz Superdome, 1250 Poydras Plaza, Entergy Tower, Orleans Tower, and the Hyatt Regency New Orleans. While Benson Tower is an office space and not a concert or event venue, its location makes it a central hub for business travelers and visitors exploring downtown New Orleans.

Below you’ll find practical details on parking, transportation, and nearby hotel and dining options to help you plan your visit with ease. We’ve got you covered with trusted, straightforward guidance designed to make your trip smooth and stress-free.

For a complete downtown experience, consider staying at a nearby hotel within the connected complex or the broader CBD. The Hyatt Regency New Orleans is directly connected to the complex, offering convenient access to Benson Tower and surrounding attractions. When you’re ready to dine, explore a range of nearby restaurants that showcase New Orleans flavor and hospitality. While Benson Tower itself doesn’t host public seating or performances, its strategic location makes it a convenient base for business meetings, conferences, and weekday visits in the heart of the city.

Security and accessibility are top priorities for visitors and tenants. We recommend confirming parking arrangements with your hotel or nearby garages, planning transit routes in advance, and checking for any event traffic in the area, especially around major downtown venues and the Superdome complex.
