HARBOR COMMUNITY COLLECTIVE COFFEE LOUNGE

LOCATION: Lakeview, New Orleans, LA

PROGRAM: Remodel of existing lobby space

CLIENT(S): Confidential

SIZE: N/A

STATUS: Pre-Construction

PROJECT TEAM: GOAT (Architecture and Interiors)

Longtime GOAT client and collaborator Tim Baudier purchased the historic Harbor Community Church in Lakeview in 2018 with plans to reinvigorate its place in the neighborhood and New Orleans’ faith-based community. The building is an integral part of the Lakeview’s midcentury architectural fabric and GOAT is working with Mr. Baudier to refresh and restore the building, one space at a time.

The first such intervention is to help reimagine an existing lobby space as an informal community gathering space and refreshment center for the neighborhood and the nonprofit collective using the building’s spaces.
