No,

The city had a times discussed revamping the River Center. This basically says the LSU Arena project(new or renovation) would satisfy the scope of a River Center revamp, making it unnecessary. If that happens, the would trash an effort for it and no hinder the LSU project.

4/5 Outline basically getting rid of the river center arena to be replaced by convention space and/or possibly attracting a hotel on the site. Think the Hilton/Riverwalk/Convention center model in Nola.
