The Bayou Treme Center project will be a powerful and ongoing source of economic revival in an area that has suffered substantial disinvestment since the late 1970’s. We are grateful to the New Orleans Catholic Archdiocese for providing this wonderful historic facility on terms that will make this proposed $10 million renovation, and the 95 permanent jobs that it will produce, possible – Hal Brown
