History

Perspective
In 1983, Daniel Robinowitz, a developer from Texas, announced his plan to build a new office complex called "Galleria" near Interstate 10 and Causeway Boulevard in Metairie. Harwood K. Smith and Partners (known as HKS, Inc.) was hired to design the buildings. Six towers of roughly equal height were originally planned, with a total estimated cost of $500 million; this tower (The Galleria) is the only one that was built. The project was planned to be built in four phases. Phase one is called "Galleria One", which included The Galleria tower. At that time, it was built at a cost of $100 million. It was opened in December 1986.[6]
In 2005, the building was acquired by The Feil Organization, a New York City based real estate company.[7]
In early 2020, Bernhard LLC, an energy service, engineering, and mechanical and electrical contractor (later rebranded as ENFRA in 2025[8]), established its national headquarters in The Galleria.[9][10]
The tower underwent a $5 million renovation in 2025. The project was managed by AGL Commercial Interiors and Landis Construction, with Pinnacle Elevator and TKE responsible for the building elevators. Works included were modernization of the lobby, parking garage, service, tower, and penthouse elevators. It was completed in May that year.[3]
