Manning designed the new 135-bed dormitory for the University of Holy Cross in New Orleans. It’s the first residence hall for the campus, and the university used student fees and capital campaigns to fund the $12 million construction.

In addition to student housing, the dormitory incorporates administrative offices, student life, student fitness, and residential amenities. The building design reflects the Georgian architectural style used across the campus to support the university’s brand.

Manning partnered with The McDonnel Group for the design/build delivery of the project that will serve as the model for future dormitories.
