Elysian Courtyards of Gentilly (formerly known as Chateau Carre) consists of 150 one and two-bedroom apartments in two buildings on a full block site in the Gentilly neighborhood. Originally built in 1964, this brick building was damaged during hurricane Katrina. Immediately after the storm, it was gutted, remediated, and provided with a new roof to preserve its integrity. The interiors of this development have been completely rebuilt, offering new apartments at a development cost that is significantly less than the cost of new development.
Renaissance Neighborhood Development Corporation (RNDC) has initiated a new development in central Covington, Louisiana. New Covington / The Groves at Mile Branch Creek is a planned community on a previously undeveloped site that will provide 94 mixed-income rental units and 35 single family homes for purchase by first-time homebuyers.
