Bollinger Shipyards, a major builder of military, commercial, and specialty vessels, has opened a new 14,000-square-foot office in Metairie, Louisiana. The $1 million build-out project was completed in late 2025 at the Burns and Wilcox Center on Airline Highway, providing a centralized and modern workspace to accommodate the company's growing workforce and administrative needs.

Why it matters

Bollinger Shipyards is a significant contributor to the maritime economy in the Gulf South region. The new Metairie office represents the company's continued investment and commitment to its operations in the greater New Orleans area, supporting local jobs and the regional maritime industry.

The details

The full-floor office build-out involved demolishing and rebuilding the entire space, including new walls, ceilings, and a redesigned layout tailored for contemporary office use.
