Name this tree

There's this tree on Prytania Street in the Garden District which I pass practically every day.

It blooms at about this time every year with these bright yellow... um... seed vehicles which dangle from the leaves and create this really pretty spouting effect.

Pollenating tree

This is the only one of these trees I know of around here. Each year I tell myself I'm going to find out what it is but never get around to asking anyone. Does anybody have any idea?
