Edison Plaza, Modern office building in downtown Beaumont, United States.
Edison Plaza is a 17-story office tower at 350 Pine Street in downtown Beaumont, Texas, and the city's tallest building at 77 meters. It was built in 1982 for Gulf States Utilities and now houses Entergy Texas offices on four leased floors. The Edison Museum, devoted to Thomas Edison, stands on its grounds.
The building opened in 1982 as the headquarters for Gulf States Utilities, a major energy company. It later transitioned to a multi-tenant office space, becoming a key commercial property in the downtown area.
The tower is often mistakenly called "The Entergy Building", but its official name remains Edison Plaza, and the Edison Museum dedicated to Thomas Edison stands on its grounds. Entergy leases only four of the 17 floors and no longer owns the building.
The building sits in a central location downtown and is easily accessible on foot from nearby streets. Parking is available for visitors, and the main entrance provides clear access to the elevator lobby.
Capital One acquired the building's signage rights in 2015, making its corporate logo visible from many points across the downtown area. This partnership has made the tower one of the most recognizable landmarks in the city's skyline.
