The Domain Companies, a long-time client and partner, engaged Impetus (formerly Palmisano) as the Design-Assist contractor to lead the historic renovation of a former law office and city annex building into a six-story luxury hotel in New Orleans’ Central Business District. The first floor included tenant improvements for the hotel bar and kitchen support space. Floors two through six included build-out of new guestrooms. 

Work also included repair, repaint, and refurbishment of the exterior façade; modernization of historic passenger elevators and addition of a new service elevator; and refurbishment of the historic monumental stair. Completed in 2018, Impetus worked hand-in-hand with the design teams to align the high-end design intent with constructibility and closely managed sequencing and quality control on this 55,000-square-foot project in order to meet the challenging 12-month schedule.
