I wonder where this will be. Moldy crescent city tower?

My landlord in New Orleans who owns multiple rental properties said someone bought that building and is renovating it out. I realize that's not hard evidence but I don't know why he'd outright lie about something like that.



They have been "renovating" it for years.

Nothing is being done though. There was a push to open the parking garage to make some money, but that was shutdown.

Reznor is the only one doing modifications at this point

This is good news and all - don't get me wrong, but the fact that THIS could be deemed "one of the most significant economic development announcements in Louisiana history" is one of the saddest statements ever.

I kind of agree. BUT it's not O&G or tourism related...

LED wants to pump this as loud as they can.
