The Bayou Bakery, Coffee Bar & Eatery is situated in the former carriage house of the Old Naval Hospital, c. 1866. The neglected civil war hospital and site were rehabbed and transformed into the Hill Center, a vibrant home for culture, education and city life that opened in 2011. BELL Architects served as the architect for this renovation project and won seven design awards for Historic Preservation, Adaptive Reuse and Sustainability. The Cafe’s Carriage House exterior rehabilitation was completed during this project and included a wood and glass addition to house garden view future dining space.
