Housed in a prime location on a major thoroughfare in the Central Business District, Walk-On’s Bistreaux & Bar is a vibrant sports bar and restaurant that has become a go-to spot for local and visiting fans alike. Walk-On’s is one of four venues Williams Architects completed within a 16,000sf set of historic buildings on Poydras Street, just steps from the Superdome.

The space, formerly a steakhouse, sat vacant for a number of years after Hurricane Katrina. Employing our expertise in navigating the challenges of historic tax credits, Williams Architects completely redesigned the building to house this dynamic and lively entertainment venue. Several creative design elements we developed speak to the sports theme, such as a “scoreboard” of televisions above the bar, and a brick arcade reminiscent of a baseball stadium.
