Kress/Welsh & Levy Building
Work will start this afternoon on the Kress/Welsh & Levy Building, at the corner of Third and Main streets. The landmark building, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, was the site for some of the first civil rights demonstrations in Baton Rouge. The Cyntreniks Group plans to turn the building into a mixed-use development with residential, commercial and office space.
