Hibernia Bank Building, located at 812 Gravier Street, in the Central Business District of New Orleans, Louisiana, is a 20-story, 355 feet (108 m)-tall skyscraper. It used to be the headquarters of Hibernia National Bank. At the time it was completed, it was the tallest building in the state of Louisiana. The white dome atop the building remains a familiar part of the skyline, and during holidays is lit up with colored lights-- red and green for Christmas and purple, green, and gold for New Orleans Mardi Gras.
