Traditional Building Exhibition and Conference
Fall 2007
New Orleans, LA
October 17-20, 2007
Morial Convention Center
"Restoring the Past.
Building the Future"
The Traditional Building Exhibition and Conference will return to New Orleans, October 17-20, 2007.
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita destroyed more than 200,000 homes and 18,000 commercial and public buildings in Louisiana, and countless more along the Gulf Coast. With much of this region’s architectural and urban heritage devastated this may well have been the greatest cultural disaster in American history. But through the resolve of citizens, leadership from the Louisiana Recovery Authority (LRA) and billions in funding, the region is poised to come back stronger than ever.
Already, the LRA and Urban Design Associates have created the Louisiana Speaks Pattern Book. (click on image)
This tool for homeowners, builders and developers gives design guidelines to help preserve the region’s valuable character when rebuilding. “We are proud to partner with the Traditional Building Exhibition and Conference as it makes its return to New Orleans”, says LRA Executive Director, Andy Kopplin. “This event will provide thousands of citizens who are rebuilding and restoring their homes with techniques to maintain the architectural and cultural history of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast”.
Show attendees will be able to choose from over 70+ educational seminars and workshops covering a wide array of topics and product segments, including window and sash repair, door and hardware installation, plaster repair, roofing, siding, ornamental ironwork and paint selection. Traditional building techniques, how-to information and old world craftsmanship will come to life in the Live Demonstration areas throughout the exhibit hall.
