St.
Bernard Manor, an elderly housing building designed by HMS Architects, held its
grand opening on August 20. The opening was presided by Archbishop Aymond who
blessed the building. In attendance were retired Archbishop Hughes, St Bernard
Parish President Peralta, and others. The new building which has 82 units is a
replacement project completed with FEMA funding for a structure that was
damaged beyond repair during hurricane Katrina. The new St. Bernard Manor is
yet another example of the recovery of the greater New Orleans area. The
building provides much needed elderly housing for the New Orleans region. HMS
Architects is also currently completing another elderly housing project for the
Archdiocese of New Orleans in Metairie, which is scheduled for completion in
the spring of 2014.
