The old Louisiana National Bank building in downtown Baton Rouge isn't exactly new construction considering it was built in 1921, but it was recently renovated as the Watermark Hotel.  At 12 stories, it is one of the taller buildings in the downtown area and it really stands out among the surrounding low rise buildings and parking lots.  Lighting at the top of the hotel helps it to stand out after dark and adds an attractive view to the area.
