Administrators from Johnson Controls recently visited the Tulane uptown and downtown campuses, as well as a Tulane City Center site in City Park, to see the improvements their philanthropic contributions and oversight of various design and construction projects have brought about at Tulane.
Johnson Controls supervised the expansion and efficiency overhaul of the Central Plant and is collaborating with other companies at the School of Architecture on a smarter building pilot program for Richardson Memorial Hall.

Johnson Controls has partnered with Tulane on many community projects, including Grow Dat, an urban farm where high school students grow fresh produce to sell and share with others in New Orleans.
