One Shell Plaza (now 910 Louisiana) is a 50-story modernist skyscraper completed in 1971 in downtown Houston, designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill. Standing 218 meters tall, the tower was Houston's tallest building upon completion; with its antenna, the structure reaches 304.8 meters. The sleek glass and steel design exemplifies the International Style that dominated corporate architecture in the postwar era.
