Cat Island Coffee - Gulfport, MS

We are grateful to the Mississippi Business Journal for highlighting this exciting project we have gotten to be a part of in Gulfport!

“There is such power in watching a city be its best self. Channel South is Gulfport saying loudly that quality place-making matters on the Gulf Coast. For WBA, being part of that conversation and part of the team alongside Bellamare Development and AnderCorp is a privilege we don’t take lightly,” said Jamie Wier, AIA, Principal with WBA.

We are excited to have supported the project by designing the multi-family and parking facilities, and can't wait to see this take life!

There have been countless awards, festivals, panel discussions, lectures and even travel abroad since your July 5, 2025 return to give us a more measured talk about your book, “Afterlives of the Plantation” — as if your hometown launch event the month prior had not already established an ironclad precedent. We literally sold out of all the books…

Thank you, Jarvis McInnis for visiting our flagship, Pass Christian Books/Cat Island Coffeehouse. That you appeared to be working/writing intently, we certainly hope it wasn’t too much of an imposition to ask for a photo. Authors like you help keep independent bookstores in business…

Again, thank you, congratulations and kudos to Columbia University Press
