What we do best
Below are just a few of our recently completed projects. If you know of a monument or marker that needs attention, let us know: monumentaltaskinfo@gmail.com
Jefferson Highway Marker
Sponsored by the Jefferson Historical Society in 2010, the marker was in faded and peeling. MTC gave it a much-needed facelift!
Beautifying the Margaret Statue Park
The fence surrounding the Margaret Haughery statues was damaged and the paint was peeling. The grounds needed manicuring as well. Our team repaired and painted the face as well and spruced up the green space. .
Uncle Jack at the Rural Life Museum
Cleaned and restored Uncle Jack. This bronze statue was created to memorialize the accomplishments and contributions of the African-Americans of 19th-century Louisiana. It is “dedicated to the faithful service of black people who played an instrumental role in the building of Louisiana.
WWI Doughboy Statue
During WWI American troops were referred to by their allies as “doughboys,” a term whose origin is still not fully understood. In 1970 a statue honoring the doughboys was placed in New Orleans near the corner of Tulane Avenue and South Galvez in a spot of land known as Pershing Plaza.
Banks Social and Carnival Club (WWII)
MTC conducted extensive foundation work with the expertise and help of Abry Bros. Construction. Soil was filled with the help of Boy Scout Troop 312 and the stone was cleaned.
Couturie Forest Marker
Together with the City Park Staff members, MTC volunteers cleaned the bricks and restored the marker. We are looking forward to a continuing partnership with the Park to restore other statues and markers.
