All I can say about LC now is that it might be the best designed city in Louisiana. All roads on grid, i10 on north side, 210 loop around to south. City is growing south, and there are no fewer than 4, wide 4 lane roads the run north south.


I’ve said this same thing about the street grid system there in Lake Charles. It makes it easy to do though when you’re building in old cow pastures and fields.

Ignorant.
Most if thise curves in the old roads and highways in the older days were a failure of government to be able to secure land from owners (have to go around) or to do damn political favors for a friend and have the road pass near their property for some sort of gain.

And as they mature into more used paths the last 30 years, it wasn't corrected, or was too late.

Lake Charles got it right a long time ago because they were smart. End of story
