As part of Preservation Resource Center of New Orleans’ six-part series, “Building New Orleans, Then and Now,” John T. Campo Jr. presented “History and Hospitality: Businesses Built on a Sense of Place” on Thursday, May 6th.

In his presentation, John T. Campo Jr. explores New Orleans’ rich history of leisure and hospitality and how that legacy has evolved through adaptive reuse conversions of historic properties. John expands on the benefits of the Federal (Historic) Rehabilitation Tax Credit and State Historic Tax Credit programs for the development and preservation of historic properties on a local, state, and federal level.

With over 36 years of experience in historic preservation, Campo Architecture and Interior Design has many stories to tell of the challenges and lessons learned in the architectural design of adaptive reuse properties. This presentation highlights a few pivotal downtown New Orleans projects throughout John’s career, starting with the Jax Brewery, Embassy Suites/Mercantile Hotel, Country Inn & Suites/Eliza Jane, and the Troubadour.
