Build Strong Academy in New Orleans is a unique and transformative project designed to train the next generation of tradespeople.

SFV’s role in this project involved not just the physical construction of the facility but also the thoughtful planning and coordination of resources to ensure that the building was optimally designed for both functionality and future growth. Our team worked diligently with architects and designers to create a learning environment that meets the rigorous demands of trades training while also serving as a modern, welcoming space for the local community.
