I'm with you on this. The proliferation of Willie's Chicken Shacks in the FQ has aligned with the increasing degradation of the FQ.

Just as trashy in the 80s with the same crime.

Strip joints hookers, bars, live music and restaurants in trashy party blend are forever popular.

My grandfather was from New Orleans and we went there often when I was a kid. I remember walking down Bourbon street and my mom making me put my hands over my eyes so I couldn’t see all the trashiness

I think people have to quantify what they mean by trashy.
Trashy like strippers, drunks and loud music?
Trashy like criminals robbing people?
I mean you have a street on which some of the wealthiest people in the country once went to legal brothels that cost more than some people earned in a year back then.
Is that trashy? Or is it trashier to have actual crimes and violence being ignored by the police?
Are there actual street walkers in the quarter now? Don’t recall seeing them much 5-10 years ago but I wasn’t looking for them either so…?

it's weird but there used to be sort of a "line of demarcation" observed there, I don't know it it was between the cops and the dindus or what, but way back when if you stayed in the "safe" area you were relatively okay, get a block out of the area and you were taking some serious risk
Accurate. Rampart was the difference between safety and FAFO.

Bourbon was good trashy fun up until around the mid 2000s, when the millennials began replacing the Gen Xers.
