The project consisted of complete renovation of the basement, the first floor blood bank, pharmacy and 4th floor lab area build-out. Mold remediation on every floor was also an essential part of this project. This project came with many challenges including the fast paced schedule and the coordination with other contractor’s working on-site.

Landis has been selected for the St. Bernard Parish Government 34th Judicial Courthouse Repairs, Alterations and Historical Restoration project.
Located on St. Bernard Highway in Chalmette, LA the building was built around 1939. During Hurricane Katrina the courthouse, like most of the parish, had floodwaters that completely covered the first floor.
The 12 month project includes exterior wall limestone restoration, new roofing, preservation and rehabilitation of historical paneling, millwork, light fixtures, marble flooring and original plaster walls.
In 2008, the Nationally Registered, historic American Chicle Building was purchased by the owners of Landis Construction Co., LLC to convert into the corporate offices. With Landis’s experience in historical restoration and green construction, not to mention the building’s inspiring raw material, it was a match made in renovation heaven! As construction began the day after acquisition of the building, the job took the shape of an extreme Design-Build project. The building held many secrets; the designers were unable to visualize some of the issues that needed to be dealt within their initial design. Through extensive collaboration on all levels of project management, the third floor and part of the second floor of the building was quickly transformed into the home of Landis. While keeping the exposed beams and columns, wood floors, and high ceilings that made the original building so special, Landis incorporated state of the art green elements and technological improvements to bring the building into the new millennium.
Trinity Lutheran Church is the oldest Lutheran church on the New Orleans Westbank and noted as the fourth oldest Lutheran church in the City of New Orleans. Following

The first floor is multi-faceted and houses the Cardiology Rehabilitation Center, the Courtyard Café, the Chapel, the Outpatient Dialysis Unit, a Medical Office Suite, and the relocated and expanded Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The first floor of the addition ties into both the neighboring Medical Office Building and the existing hospital building.

This new center included a medley of both relocated and new equipment. Some rooms were completely new, others needed renovating, but all areas were damaged by Katrina and needed repairs.The major work on this project needed to be done in just three months. The deadline revolved around the delivery date of the imaging equipment. Included in this were a renovated MRI, a new RF Scan room, a rebuilt CT Scan room, updated Ultrasound rooms, and an expanded Nuclear Medicine space.
