wouldn’t hurt to have a place that serves food and has an upstairs bar near a campus with 30,000 people.


As opposed to one of the largest neighborhoods in the state and an area of town that could be incorporating into its own city?


The campus theory surrounding bars in this town is mostly false. They go to tiger land because it’s cheap. Most college kids are broke. Ask a millennial

Can’t believe they made it this long. But what information do you to believe they’ve been having a rough time.

Downtown was a wasteland, then it wasn’t. Government was a ghetto, then it wasn't.

Sherwood has large neighborhoods, in between 12 & 10, close to St. George. It’s a smart developer away from rejuvenation.

Broadmoor is already on the comeback, Amazon is moving into Cortana.

The pieces are there.

I think they were just saying that the Sherwood area isn't really what it used to be currently, so they can see why Londoner might not be flourishing with business. Seems to be more families with kids and older folks on that side of town than young 20-somethings. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Oh I get it, I think a lot of that will depend on this upcoming vote as well.

This should become a rename thread:


The Londonest

There, the other places can be Londoner, this place is the Londonest.

College kids don't care for that type of scene. Bars geared toward college kids placed around LSU fail every year. It's not as simple as just being nearby a college campus

That bar is the GOAT get home without a DUI bar thanks to its location. You can get right into Lake Sherwood and use the neighborhoods to get home.



Speedy just took note of this

That certainly wasn't true while I was a student. Well, once I turned 21 at least.
