Can you imagine the hulking monstrosities that will be left after Texas legalizes gambling? It will be like an abandoned nightmare.

I know LC residents might not like to hear this, but Laura did a great deal of good for that downtown long-term. There is a lot of opportunity now.
Tell that to the firm who next week will see their downtown building go through sheriffs sale for $2.3 million

No. That's a mile or so south past this one on the West side of Ryan St. It's a historic building and you can rent out the bottom floor and courtyard for events

Oh my bad. I thought you were asking about the foreclosure building I posted about.
Yes it was originally called the CM tower because Calcasieu Marine National Bank built it.

Then the oil bust of the mid-1980's hit. Hibernia Bank out of New Orleans bought CM.
Then Capital One bought Hibernia in the early 2000's.

Don’t forget about facilities in Sulphur.
That is a lot of fields for such a small population.

They are in the process of wrecking the partitions to remove them ahead of demo.

On a lighter note- when we were in the buccaneers, there may or may not have been a few sets removed from north side of the Westlake end and made into memorial plaques for those who served as Jean LaFitte.
Also, I do want to attend the demolition.
