Algiers Ferry Terminal Renovation

Algiers Ferry Terminal is an exciting and challenging project to repurpose the decommissioned terminal building and associated site. The Regional Transportation Authority asked Studio West to rethink the approach to the once car-centric site and terminal experience to accommodate their new accessible and pedestrian-only ferry boats. The project includes a $9.6M renovation to the existing terminal, including a new accessible ramp addition, a new elevator, and site elements, to the federal property located on the west bank of the Mississippi River in the Algiers neighborhood of New Orleans. Studio West is working with a multidisciplinary team, collaborating in support of a shared vision for a highly functional terminal and community destination to increase ridership of the Algiers / Canal ferry route.
