Really, the group that included Drew Brees had a very boring and potentially successful proposal for a distribution center and light industrial. That totally could have worked here.

So any private industry claiming to invest in amateur sports fields is either dumb, or a grifter.
Traction would like a word with you.
There's a ton, a ton, of money to be made investing in youth sports right now. Now, it has to be a nice facility and safe... but there's plenty of baws and bawettes out there who would spend $50/day on a pass that allows them to watch Jaxxxxxxxxxson play games at 830 and 300, and to swim in between games.

This seems idiotic, but I wish Jefferson Parish would try and redevelop the zephyr field property into some kind of community athletic facility - basketball courts, ice rink, climbing gym - something that actually improves the lives of the residents of Jefferson parish rather than just turn it over to another single tenant/single use sports field.
Lasalle is a mess. The theater, well, books could be written about that disaster.
Nah, keep JP out of this.

No way that gets built for $500M.

Is this being built for people who annoy you?

Nothing will happen unless the developers grease LaToya’s campaign fund.

Depopulation and negative growth is the best strategy for such a poorly run city like New Orleans.
Clearing land at abandon properties and returning to nature should be done at every opportunity.
Common sense tell you that if you can`t properly maintain the population and infrastructure that is present now, then what sense does it make to increase population and infrastructure.

No way this actually gets built. If you have $500,000,000 to spend you aren’t building this in the East on a dilapidated piece of property that hasn’t been occupied for 18 years
Even the most woke bank in the US isn’t financing this doomed development.

I'm buying a Safelight autoglass franchise across the street if this gets built.... going to make a mint!

First thing to be built at the site better be a police station with an attached jail

A water park in New Orleans East would be a daycare for the urban yutes in the area during the summer.

There’s a population that will destroy it in short order.
Maybe charge $50 to get in..
