overview

Morning Park LLC enlisted Impetus (formerly Palmisano) as the contractor to lead the new construction of a Trader Joe’s grocery store in the first phase of the Tolmas Retail Development on Veterans Boulevard in Metairie, LA. The 14,000-square-foot building consists of a steel-framed shell space with specialty electrical and mechanical systems built specifically for Trader Joe’s. The exterior is a stucco façade with metal panel cladding in the front-facing Veterans Boulevard.

Construction was phased to allow Trader Joe’s to open on their target date and continue operations during the construction of two additional buildings, totaling 31,000-square-feet of retail space for up to seven tenants.
