Second Line Stages

Landis proudly completed construction on the first green film studio in the United States and the first Hollywood-standard soundstage complex in the New Orleans metro area, Second Line Stages. The project envelops an entire block in the Lower Garden District, including four existing buildings and the construction of a new five-story building. The campus is comprised of a 90,000 sq. ft. facility encompassing three soundstages; 18,000 sq. ft. of production support space; 30,000 square feet of production area, dressing room, casting, wardrobe, and conference space; a 50-seat digital screening theater and a rooftop terrace showcasing spectacular views of the Mississippi River and downtown New Orleans. Under the U. S. Green Building Council’s guidelines, the project achieved LEED Gold Certification.

Landis’s team was extremely accommodating and worked to keep costs down while delivering sustainable, state-of-the-art soundstages, the first independent, green studio in the United States.
