EAST BANK - NEW ORLEANS

This short film was part of an international design competition submission to find new uses for decommissioned military bases.

East Bank was built in 1919 for the US Army Quartermaster Corps during World War I. The base was a supply depot for the Army and then transferred to the Navy in 1965. It was decommissioned in September 2011.

The design proposes an adaptive reuse of the site for mixed uses that serve the local community and the city at large.
