A New Home for Graduate Jewish Life
Construction has begun on the brand-new Chabad Grad Student Center at 2223 Carondelet Street.
This is more than a building — it is a home for Jewish graduate life.
Strategically located — three miles from the Tulane Law School, one mile from the Medical School, a short walk to the Warehouse District, and directly across from Anshe Sfard synagogue — this Center will become the hub of Jewish life for graduate students and young professionals throughout New Orleans.
Designed with purpose, the new Center brings together spaces for learning, celebration, and hospitality:
Shabbat Dining Hall
The Shabbat Dining Hall connects seamlessly with the state-of-the-art kitchen, built to host large communal meals.
The veranda
Overlooking the spacious backyard, this will be an ideal outdoor space for events in the pleasant spring and fall evenings.
Hospitality Suite
A two bedroom suite with its own private entrance, for out-of-town guests and for students that want to experience a full Shabbat, but live too far to walk.
