New Orleans ghost interchanges and why they exist
Only one problem.
He seems to have left out their most recent claim to fame, which of course, is the guy taking a shite and was captured on street view.

That’s the most annoying voice ever.

Those interchanges look like the perfect place for a Bucee's

As a former Louisiana resident, been through there countless times over the last 45 years and the reasons for the exits is obvious and tied to once grand plans for NOLA East expansion that never occurred. Long been a dumping ground for trash, burned out vehicles and human remains.

Despite possibly being an interesting video, I couldn’t listen to that horrific narration past the 4 minute mark.

Yeah frick that guy's voice

It’s a shame the east sucks so bad. If Nola ever really got it’s shite together you had a perfect place for professionals to live and work in a bustling city.

This would probably do wonders for I-12 congestion. And I guess being in the east, earths overpopulation.

His voice is unbelievably annoying. Maybe he thinks that's what beavers sound like.

I still don’t understand why the east declined so fast but Jefferson didn’t.

Jefferson and the east weren't the same. JP's growth came after the bust.

Ah I didn’t know that. I guess Jefferson boom came at the expense of the east? That was all before my time.
There is a good street grid in the east. Close to a lot of big employers. It’s too bad that it is past the point of no return.

I don’t know how much is swamp out there, but say the same. So much potential. But even if they built $1m homes out there and decent businesses, nobody would buy or visit. Lots of land going to waste. At the very least they could fix up some of those Katrina abandoned homes and make low cost living.

I don't think he's from here. Sluh-DELL? Meeshooed Blvd?

Section 8 Housing boom hit around same time as the East was taking off. Jefferson was already heavily developed and they worked to keep Section 8 out. From the old-timers I’ve spoken too the East was a great place at one time with middle class families, fishing and hunting you could walk to, easy access to the city and the N. Shore.

JP certainly had growth at the same time, but the bust sent a lot of East residents to other states/metros.
Crime moved in. That was the end of the story.

You sure about that? Why was the School Board building two more large giant high schools in the early seventies? (King and Bonnabel)
Metairie was largely built out before the oil bust and before
the decline of NO East.

JP wasn't a ghost town, but it wasn't nearly as developed as The East in the early 80s.

You and I have two very different memories of Metairie in the 70s and 80s.
