Time Out New Orleans
Oretha Castle Haley Boulevard is surrounded by a neighborhood recovering from economic suppression. In a recovering neighborhood like Central City, the urban environmental concerns focus on affordable space. Time Out New Orleans solves this problem with a mixed-use structure, that includes affordable retail space and housing units. The decision to introduce mixed-use development is a practical approach to modern day Main Street USA. This project was designed with the intention to improve the connectivity of the existing neighborhood with market commerce and housing. Time Out New Orleans proposes a practical approach to challenging the urban environment.
