Your Office Location Is Part of Your Recruiting Package
Salary, benefits and workplace culture matter, but employees also consider what their daily trip to work will be like.
An Elmwood office location can provide practical access for employees living across Metairie, Harahan, River Ridge, Kenner, New Orleans and West Bank communities.
When employees arrive at 824 Elmwood, approximately 250 free surface parking spaces, parking on all four sides and three convenient building entrances can also reduce the amount of time between arriving at the property and getting to the office.
The Commute Doesn’t End When the Car Arrives
When comparing office locations, consider the complete trip:
Two buildings can have similar drive times but very different parking and building-access times.
At 824 Elmwood, surface parking surrounds the building and tenants and visitors can use three convenient entrances.
Convenient Access to Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport
For companies whose employees, clients or executives travel regularly, airport access can be an important part of an office-location decision.
824 Elmwood provides practical roadway access toward Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) without requiring visitors to first travel through the New Orleans CBD.
The documented Google Maps travel time between MSY and 824 Elmwood is shown in the commute table above (16 min, 9.3 mi, via I-10 E and Clearview Pkwy, checked September 15, 2026). No separate airport travel time is stated beyond that documented Google Maps result.
Convenience Matters Throughout the Workday
Employees may leave the office for lunch, meetings, appointments or errands and return several times during the day.
Elmwood offers numerous nearby quick-service, fast-casual and restaurant choices, while 824 Elmwood’s surrounding surface parking can make returning to the office straightforward.
The value of convenient access is therefore not limited to the morning commute.
Small Time Savings Can Repeat All Day
Owners, executives and employees may leave for client meetings, appointments or errands and return to the office several times during a workday.
Every trip repeats the parking and building-access process. A few minutes saved during one trip may seem minor, but repeated across employees, executives and hundreds of workdays, the difference can become meaningful.
Away From Major Parade Corridors
824 Elmwood is not located directly on major Veterans Boulevard, Metairie Road or Uptown New Orleans parade routes that periodically experience street closures, detours and event-related congestion.
Regional traffic can affect any Greater New Orleans location, but being outside a major parade corridor can reduce direct event-related access disruptions to the building.
Practical Access From West Bank Communities
The Huey P. Long Bridge provides a direct East Jefferson connection for employees and clients coming from communities such as Gretna, Harvey, Marrero and Westwego.
The documented Google Maps commute times from Gretna, Harvey and Marrero are shown in the commute table above rather than making generalized claims about how long these trips take.
