The McDonnel Group recently broke ground on a $22.6 million expansion of the New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts. The project will transform a historic warehouse into a 65,000-square-foot modern teaching facility complete with classrooms, labs and a kitchen.
The project design-build team is being led by The McDonnel Group, with John C. Williams Architects as the lead designer. McDonnel Group President Allan McDonnel says the interior of the warehouse will be totally retrofitted and resigned to accommodate the new facilities.
