New Orleans Center for Creative Arts :: New
Orleans, LA
Morphy Makofsky, Inc. provided the structural
engineering for this unique educational facility. Located
on the Mississippi River the site incorporates several historically
significant warehouse buildings, including one of the oldest shed
warehouses remaining in New Orleans.
The two oldest warehouse buildings were preserved
by supporting the interior structure of the building so that crumbling
exterior masonry walls could be rebuilt. The design weaves classrooms,
studios and performance facilities into a campus environment.
