Yea they did it right. The main building is a replica of the old administration building from old campus. The gym is like a small college facility, unreal.

Quick story - the legendary wooden gazebo that is part of the school logo even was still at the old campus after Katrina. The city bought the property (I think, or they got it somehow) and they wouldn't let HC enter the locked fence to move the gazebo to the new campus. They said it no longer belonged to HC. Magically the gazebo appeared at the new campus in the middle of the night, a few baws got the job done it seems...

Bittersweet for me. As an alum, I miss the old campus and really wish they could have found a way to stay.

However, I'm really happy that of all the places they could have went, they came to Gentilly. It's really helping revitalize two parts of the neighborhood that needed some help.
