The new Armed Forces Reserve Center and Field Maintenance Shop was designed to serve the needs of the Louisiana National Guard Marine and Army Reserve Units located in the Baton Rouge Area as well as functioning as the headquarters for all units of the Louisiana National Guard throughout the state. The Reserve Center portion of the complex houses the Administrative, Storage, and Assembly/Training Spaces for each branch of Service. The Facility Maintenance Shop is also used by all three branches of service. The facility architecture has a rich historic style as seen in various elements such as the cast stone columns, brick arches, and decorative cupolas. The building look reflects traditional Louisiana architecture combined with a hint of contemporary influence.
