The Chabad Jewish Center of Metairie, located at 4141 W. Esplanade Ave, was established as a branch of Chabad Lubavitch of Louisiana in the summer of 1990 in response to development in suburban New Orleans. Directed by Rabbi Yossie and Chanie Nemes, Chabad Center aptly serves the needs of the suburban New Orleans Jewish community. In the spring of 1999 construction of the modern facility, dedicated in memory of Gerson Katz, was completed, enabling the center to enhance its ability to expand its programs and activities.
