GENERAL: This historic 32,430 square foot masonry building consists of one (1) 4-story building and three (3) 2-story buildings. The painted masonry and other exterior elements of this facility have severely deteriorated due to weather and sunlight exposure in the subtropical Southeastern Louisiana climate. Many of the wood windows, doors and cornices have faded. Peeling paint has left some surface areas bare. On the steel features (doors and gates) the paint has eroded to primer coated metal in some areas resulting in accelerated surface rust and staining.

The first floor contains a Visitor Center which is open 364 days each year and serves approximately 170,000 visitors annually. The Bid Schedule includes the BASE BID and Two BID OPTIONS.
