Nah, this is New Orleans. It's going to be original so the streets will be named Mystikal Street, Juvenile Road, Cash Money Way, Back That arse Up Blvd., and so on. Remember, this is about NOLAs cultcha


So, which street ends up becoming Lootie Lane?

I personally feel that to name something after someone who was in charge of an all black university in new orleans is racist and will sign any petition to not get it chsnged

Are they gonna change the name of General Pershing too? After all, he killed a bunch of Messicans during the 1916 Punitive Expedition.

That has corporate naming rights opportunities. Say hello to the Heineken neutral ground on Lootie Lane.

And what about FDR? The guy interned a bunch of Japs during the war. And he was very privileged, you could tell by his cigarette holder. Yep, I think the Dems need to take down the FDR Memorial.

Correct. From what I understand, both he and his first wife became very ill while in the Felicianas. He recovered, she died. Sarah Knox Taylor Davis is buried not far from St. Francisville, in Locust Grove Cemetery. She was incidentally the daughter of Zachary Taylor.

I wish people without a clue would quit claiming he had no ties to Louisiana.
