At the end of the summer 2021, LaEx was awarded two projects for the Atlanta based Eye South Partners. Glad to be your "eyes" and ears in South Louisiana.
In early 2020, Louisiana Expeditors secured the tenant build out work permit and State Fire Marshal AR-Letter (Review Letter) for Strayer University for thier new campus downtown at 750 Julia Street.
In 2020, Louisiana Expeditors helped Texas Builder/ Developer Arco with permits for two flagship self storage facilities for SafStor. Both projects were out-of-the-ground major construction projects. In Kenner and in New Orleans, Louisiana Expeditors delivered permit expediting services to the satisfaction of the Arco teams.
The team developing and building a new O'Reilly Auto Parts store in New Orleans East struggled with aspects of obtaining their building permit. LAEX was hired to shepherd the tangential permit challenges of City Planning Commission's storm water management approval and the Department of Public Work's curb cut permit. Lots of luck to Berry Engineers and Hutton Design Build with the out-of-the-ground project.
In the beginning of 2017, Louisiana Expeditors delivered a quick-turn-around permit expediting project for a Chicago builder who is constructing a very large warehouse in the Port Allen area. Louisiana Expeditors delivered the State Fire Marshal Permit, West Baton Rouge Parish Building Permit and DPW permit with expertise and speed. We were able to provide value to our client by financing the hefty permit and review fees, introduce them to local vendors and agencies, and streamline response to the myriad of permit questions that arise during the major undertaking of such a large ground-up project.
In 2017, Louisiana Expeditors assisted Whiting Turner with State Fire Marshal and City of Kenner permits for a major re-branding effort. The work included kiosk, signage and millwork renovations and changes due to a merger of two of the major airlines at MSY.
In early June 2016, Louisiana Expeditors secured the building permit for a new 35,000-square-foot, two-floor Norsdstrom Rack to be built at the Riverwalk. The store will anchor the upriver end of the recently renovated Riverwalk. It will be the first Nordstrom company store to open in the New Orleans metropolitan market. See press link here.
Louisiana Expeditors completed a permit acquisition project for Wingstop, a take out/ delivery hot wing restaurant, in September 2015. The project, which included Louisiana Expeditor stops at DHH, DPS, and Safety & Permits, was not without its challenges, but ultimately completed to the satisfaction of the owner and builder. Delicious!
So far this year Louisiana Expeditors has secured permits for the following national brands: the Marriot, the Royal Sonesta, Walgreens, The Fresh Market and Merrill Lynch.
In February, just after Mardi Gras, Louisiana Expeditors secured the necessary building permits (Jefferson Parish Code Enforcement, Jefferson Parish Public Works Department, Louisiana State Fire Marshal and the Louisiana Department of Health & Hospitals) for the new Fresh Market now under construction on Veterans. Here is link to an Advocate story about the same.
