An anonymous donor has appointed $18.47 million to build and maintain a new 5-story parking garage next to the Roussel Building on Banks Street. “I was inspired by the newly-paved street and my loyalty to the school,” said the donor. The brick-faced building will be the most technologically advanced of its kind, but will honor the decor of Mid-City. “I want it to look like a renovated double, only bigger,” the donor added. It will hold 650 cars, affording each junior, senior, and faculty member his or her own reserved parking space. Amenities will include beverage services, weekly car detailing, and a concierge for special events. The project is set to begin in 2026, commemorating the 100th anniversary of Jesuit’s presence on Carrollton and Banks. Happy April Fools’ Day!
