[6] As proposed the building would have included 300 apartment units, a 500-space parking garage and 40,000 square feet (3,700 m2) of retail space on the first two floors.

Plans for the interior then included 350 hotel rooms, 65 1–3 bedroom units available for purchase, an upscale restaurant, 12,000 square feet (1,100 m2) of event space, and a 400-space parking garage.

[8][9] On Saturday, October 12, 2019, at approximately 9:12 a.m. during construction, the structure partially collapsed on the North Rampart Street side.

[2] Some workers and a contractor said they had complained about unsafe practices before the collapse, and one posted a video of what he said was the construction site showing insufficient support for the structure.

[17] After repeated delays due to tropical weather,[18] demolition was expected to be complete by that December;[19] by mid-December the towers were demolished and clearing of debris was underway.

[23] Shortly after the collapse in October 2019, a lawsuit was filed in the Orleans Parish Civil District Court against the developer, architects, engineers, and other companies involved in the construction of the building on the behalf of ten of the victims.

[24][25] In September 2022, Judge Kern Reese of the Orleans Parish Civil District Court appointed Baton Rouge mediator John Perry Jr. as special master to arbitrate a settlement between a committee of plaintiffs' attorneys and the companies involved under this and other lawsuits.
