About This FEB
We employ over 18,000 civilians, military personnel, postal workers, and contractors. Some of the largest agencies in the area include the Southeast Louisiana Veterans Health system, NASA, and the US Army Corps of Engineers. We also have a large miliary presence in the US Marine Corps and US Navy. We are home to the U.S. Custom House in which is one of the oldest and most important federal buildings in the southern United States and one of the major works of architecture commissioned by the federal government in the nineteenth century. This monumental granite building was begun in 1848 and built over a period of 33 years. The grand Marble Hall in the center of the building is one of the finest Greek Revival interiors in the United States.
New Orleans is also home to the Port of New Orleans which is a diverse deepwater port uniquely located on the Mississippi River near the Gulf of Mexico. This naturally strategic location allows unparalleled access to 30-plus major inland hubs such as Dallas, Memphis, Chicago and Canada via 14,500 miles of waterways, six Class I railroads and interstate roadways. Port NOLA generates approximately $100 million in revenue annually through our four lines of business — cargo, rail, industrial real estate and cruises.
