Guardians institute

The Guardians Institute and the TCC have just started phase 1 of a community center in the upper ninth ward, which functions to support the Guardian’s Literacy Program and other Institute Initiatives. Scott Ruff of RuffWorks Studio will work with the Tulane City Center and the project partners to provide Schematic Design and Renderings for phase 1 of the Community Center. Phase 1 includes an overall site scheme as well as the design of a multifunctional outdoor covered space to include seating and basic amenities. This Phase 1 will be designed to support the programs and projects of Guardians Institute while funds are being raised for phase 2, the construction of a museum and community center currently being worked on by the Rockwell Group.

The design team is currently at work on this project, check in through the spring for updates.
