Any ideas?

In my opinion , I don't think it needs to be a war hero nor a political figure.


I think an entertainer or musician would be appropriate and avoid a stupid controversy. I highly doubt it will be Benson, and I don't think that would be the best choice anyway..

Personally, I really think Toussaint or Domino would work well. They're both unique to New Orleans and I doubt Either would ruffle too many feathers, unless some thinks it should be a more "serious" historical figure like a soldier or a political leader.




Hey, don't downvote me. It's going to be changed to something new, regardless.

Spike Lee Circle. Problem solved. He made a documentary about the levee failure during Katrina. Has ties to the city. Do the right thing.

How about Stagger Lee Circle. Loyd Price was from the New Orleans area. The song even mentions a shooting. Pretty appropriate.

Look fellas, New Orleans is Chocolate Town, once again. Forget it, it is lost to the jungle which it will come to be.

Che Grevara or Idi Amin would be my suggestion.
Lets go all the way.

Why not? Drug abusing minstrels seem to be all New Orleans has of note these days...Louis Armstrong smoked dope every day of his adult life and the airport is named for him.

Then again, if could be named for Andrew Higgins who Eisenhower credited for winning WWII.

Yall should name it after that Hogg kid. He is the new face of the Democratic Party and nothing proves Dems act like emotional teenagers like having to rename lee circle and tear down that scary statue.

Virtue Signal Circle would be appropriate.

A. Saints Circle topped with a Fleur de Los.

Or

B. Renaissance Circle topped with a statue of Lazarus holding a Phoenix.

Or

C. Jerk circle with a big dick on top of the column.
