City of Plaquemine Activity Center

The rich history of the City of Plaquemine Activity Center (COPAC) is a fine example of government reinventing the old for new community purposes.

Bayou Plaquemine Waterfront Park

The heart of Plaquemine, its downtown area featuring historic Bayou Plaquemine, has become the jewel of the city with the construction of the Bayou Plaquemine Waterfront Park.

Plaquemine Community Center & Henry Nadler Pavilion

The beautiful Plaquemine Community Center was completed in October, 2020, and includes 15,000 square feet of space, which accommodates up to 641 people. It was originally a factory of the Nadler Foundry and Machinery Co., an important part of Plaquemine’s economy from 1888 until the late 1900s. The original steel structure of the factory remains in tact, but the building has new metal wall and roof panels, as well as stucco at the entrances and brick along the wall base to match the Waterfront Park pavilion. The new kitchen features serving counters to both the pavilion and the community center, and a covered cooking area to the back of the building. The original overhead cranes, hoists and catwalks from the factory remain as a nod to the Nadler Foundry history. The facility is used for both community events and is leased out for private functions. For information on booking the facility call the Mayor's Office at 225-687-3116.
