New Orleans sure looks like crap these days.

Haven't lived or really driven in the city for more than a decade. Browsed the city via 'Google Maps' today. Mostly checking out main thoroughfares I remember (Canal, Claiborne, Elysian Fields, Franklin, St. Claude, etc.)
Holy shite. I remember abandoned buildings post Katrina, but this is next level. I've never seen so much graffiti on businesses, schools, homes. It honestly looks like some post-apocalyptic zombie movie set. Unbelievable.
I honestly think the city looked better two weeks after Katrina.

The city is in the crapper, but most of these streets have looked like dumps for a very long time

Small price to pay for getting rid of statues.

911 days without spending a dollar in that parish and no end in site to the streak

New Orleans is in bad shape, terrible actually, but I am not sure cruising Google Maps gives a good indication of how good or bad a place is.

Sure fire way to get upvotes on the OT, just shite on Nola.

It’s fricked. But the Katrina comment is just dumb.

Uh yeah, that's not exactly a representative sampling of the city. That's like intentionally picking the worst areas for your sample size.

Did you think Claiborne, Elysian Fields, or Franklin looked like anything but crap last time you were here?

but they can kill their babies whenever they want to

headed there Thurs - Saturday for work. Already can't wait to leave...and I used to live there for 15 years

South Claiborne looks better than it did a decade ago. The other streets are in a free-fall though. Canal St from Rampart to Broad is especially depressing (so many graffitied or abandoned buildings).

I was there today. The more time that passes between visits, the more blight I can recognize.
Charity hospital looks like absolute crap from the expressway. Yes qe all know it's abandoned, but conventioners don't and will notice. That is example 1 of 10,000 issues.
I need to figure out a way to design a high powered and efficient industrial pressure washer to wash the filth off of the highway overpass and elevated expressway. It's like the whole city was coated with party gravy.

Speaking of this: whatever happened to the "Gray Ghost"? I'm guessing dead or retired, because he never would have allowed the city to look like this.

Yea but how about that pic?
