Old Gretna Storefronts and West Bank Retail

Gretna runs two distinct commercial characters. Old Gretna’s downtown is one of the better-preserved historic districts on the West Bank, full of late-1800s and early-1900s storefronts with tall original display openings that almost never match a stock size. Out on the West Bank Expressway, the retail leans newer and bigger, with wide-bay strip centers and standalone stores. The downtown work demands measure-to-fit framing; the expressway work demands large-format storefront glass.

Restoring Historic Bays, Upgrading Modern Glass

For Old Gretna’s older buildings we order aluminum storefront framing sized to the real opening and pick profiles that respect the historic look while sealing properly. For West Bank Expressway retail we fit thermally broken systems with insulated, low-E glass to meet energy code. Gretna sits behind the levee and floodwall system, but humidity and wind-driven rain still set the seal detail, so we flash every opening to drain water outward.

One Crew, Jefferson Parish Permits

A downtown shop or an expressway store both lose revenue when the front is open to the street, so we phase installs and close in each opening the day it’s pulled. Our own licensed crew pulls every Jefferson Parish permit and owns the job from first measure to last detail.
