The Tallulah Coca-Cola Bottling Plant in Tallulah, Louisiana, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 23, 2013.[1]

The building was a Coca-Cola bottling plant until 1962, when it was converted to use as a Coca-Cola distribution warehouse. The facility was operated by Joe Biedenharn, "the first person to bottle Coca-Cola."[2]

The plant is a brick industrial building built on a poured concrete foundation in about 1930 and expanded, almost doubling its size, in about 1940. A partial second story at the front is supported by steel columns. The building has a Classical Revival front facade.[2]
