The design, construction, and modification of Buildings 1 and 2 reflect the evolution of mass transit in New Orleans from animal-drawn service, to electric streetcars, to motorized buses. The original structural designs of the carbarns incorporated innovations in long-span construction that eliminated the necessity for interior support columns. The 1861 carbarn utilized a tied-arch truss system, constructed of cast and wrought iron, that frequently was used by the railroad industry for structures requiring clear spans in the mid- to late-nineteenth century. A commonly used heavy-timber framed structural system was adopted for the 1887 improvements to the site.
