WELCOME
to the LSU Minden Main Street Workshop. Students and faculty from the LSU School of Architecture will be working and living in Minden for two weeks to provide assistance to Minden Louisiana Main Street in their efforts to cultivate a resilient community. This program is funded in part through a grant awarded to the LSU Office of Community Design and Development from the National Endowment for the Arts. The Minden Main Street Workshop is the first in a series of workshops to connect environmentally responsible design practices with historic preservation strategies to accelerate sustainable development in Louisiana's small towns and cities. For more information, please contact the Office of Community Design and Development.

Team Crichton

Blog: 12/18

Today, we continued working on the process of developing our townhouse units. After meeting with our professors, we made a few changes in the spatial arrangements of a couple of rooms. Also, we began developing the green space along with the north façade to provide the building with a modern touch.
