Tulane Opens New Graduate Hub in Central City | New Orleans News

Tulane University is set to unveil its new Graduate Hub in Central City — a $24M, 24,000-square-foot renovation of a historic 1900s warehouse-turned-department-store building. Designed to house up to 120 students, faculty, and staff, the space will feature state-of-the-art studios, labs, classrooms, and a lecture hall — all while preserving the original facade and iconic beams. Construction begins this fall, with completion targeted for summer 2027. This expansion aims to supercharge Tulane’s graduate programs, research, and community engagement without replacing their uptown campus. Plus, the university is rolling out transportation plans to boost access — and bring more foot traffic and economic life to Central City.
