In 2016, New Orleans-tech company Computrols purchased and planned to move into the former Times-Picayune building in Gretna. On April 20, the company celebrated the grand opening of the new, 43,000 square foot tech center.
The company spent nearly $2 million to purchase and renovate the 43,000-square-foot office and warehouse space at 2520 Belle Chasse Highway in Gretna. The facility features 10,000 square feet of office space together with a 33,600 square foot distribution facility. The facility sits on a 2.26 acre parcel and the building was renovated in 1995. It was most recently used as the West Bank bureau for The Times-Picayune.
The company designs, manufactures and services state-of-the-art building automation systems throughout the U.S. and abroad. With over 25 years in the industry, Computrols has established a solid reputation as a leader in automation systems for large facilities such as the Superdome, One Shell Square, and Harrah’s Hotel & Casino.
Computrols also has a presence throughout the country and abroad at locations includes the Statue of Liberty, AOL Campus in Sterling, VA, and the Torre del Angel in Mexico City.
“Not only does this new space give Computrols the ability to expand, but it also includes a new training center,” shared the company. “Computrols holds monthly training courses for its distribution partners and customers where they learn how to effectively utilize Computrols Building Automation Software (CBAS) as well as Computrols’ access, lighting, HVAC, and fire alarm hardware.”
