(759)

At the time of its grand opening it was considered an architectural masterpiece. Built by the same architect that designed the Louisiana State Capital building, it was the first major airport in the region, and served proudly as a general aviation airport to this day. Inside the terminal building, travelers would find an Art Deco wonderland, featuring murals by artist Xavier Gonzalez, friezes by Enrique R. Alferez and an array of stone wall and floor treatments

LPB’s Johnny Atkinson takes us on a tour of our home — the historic New Orleans Lakefront Airport. From its celebrated opening in 1934 as the “Air Terminal of Tomorrow,” to its years hiding priceless Art Deco artwork behind concrete walls, through Hurricane Katrina, and into its stunning restoration today. George Messina shares why the rich history and beauty of this landmark make it such a special setting for events.

We are so proud to be part of this building’s story!

Anna & Tripp celebrated in style at Messina’s at the Terminal on May 29 — and it was a really beautiful night. 💚

A stunning reception in the Atrium, great energy from start to finish, and chocolate milkshakes passed at the end of the evening to close it all out. We loved being part of this special evening!

Congratulations to The Doolittles —we’re wishing you all the happiness in the world!
