I’m hopeful this Nashville guy can change it


The developer of Beale St came to Shreveport for the same purpose. Developed the Red River District which was successful for about 6 months, then culture decided to visit and now it's a ghost town. 50 is thinking about giving it another go.

It’s the OT and we will shite on this but they got downtown going once and it was pretty damn awesome. There is t a real reason it couldn’t happen again.

Damn Broome and her killing that off. What a royal bitch she was


There are posters here that would vote for her again and think you are racist for pointing out how terrible she was.

Oh, and there are likely more of them than you, so get ready for another Broome soon. It is destiny. We just need to elect more Democrats.

Bowling lol.

Just to think a politician would even try to use this as a positive shows me his intelligence level. It’s comical.

Fix the problem.

Yall won’t though, to politically correct.

Baton Rouge is shite now and I’m glad I haven’t been in over 5 years because it seems to get worse every day.

1) expand Parish Prison
2) greatly increase LEO presence downtown
3) crack skulls of retards
4) create entertainment district w/ relaxed open container laws
5) economic incentives for businesses to locate downtown (especially restaurants and entertainment venues)

They really need to be smart and take advantage of our locale with a true River Walk district

If you haven’t noticed, the water level of the river in BR fluctuates tremendously with the seasons. It would be very difficult to build out the waterfront.

Apparently, AI thinks the River Walk District should be where Exxon is located.
