Interesting history:

The International House property is a PRICELINE EXPRESSion of the Beaux-Arts style of architecture, built in 1906 for the Canal Louisiana Bank & Trust Co.[4] It was designed by Architect and Brigadier General Allison Owen. In 1943, businessman Archie Jewell renovated it to become “The International House,” the world’s first World Trade Center. Emphasizing “peace through trade”, International House operated from this location for more than 50 years.[5] President Eisenhower and many other dignitaries visited the International House and the multiple Consuls General who officed there.

In 1998, entrepreneur Sean Cummings purchased the building and converted it to a boutique hotel, inspired by similar hotels in London, New York and San Francisco.[6] The hotel was designed by New Orleans based architect James Brooks Graham. It contains a lobby with 23’ ceilings and ornate pilasters and is topped by several penthouses.
