re: Who didn't see this coming - New Orleans Six Flags redevelopment in jeopardy

Billions upon billions upon billions wasted by the state and NOLA

I’d rather it be left vacant. Let nature reclaim it

Green space. With security cameras

aka "Wont Be DizRepeckted public burial grounds"

Who's dumb enough to even consider developing that site?

It’s not a fake gold chain.

You'd have thought he'd learned. But he did put in with a group that made a proposal.

They tore down the rotting rides along 510.

If nothing else happens I appreciate that

Who gonna pay to tear the rest down and let it return to green space?

stuff like this does make you wonder how anything EVER gets done in this state.

I have been trying to get a light industrial commercial project permitted for about 2 and a half years now. Tell me about it.

Been in jeopardy for 21 yrs now.

Even if they found someone to fund it, it wouldn't last. No one is going to NOLA East to be robbed or murdered.

it might surprise people but it was only open a few years, less than 6 for sure. That place was hot as hell, with no trees. look at the second one from 2005, just a few months from the hurricane.

that was a fact that i learned when i watched the fairly decent "closed for storm" documentary on the park. not beign from here, i jsut assumed it was an old park from the 70s or whatever that was eventually bought out by six flags. was surprised to learn that it didnt even open until the late 90s, and it was only Jazzland for like two years or something.
