Right next to what used to be the Fisher Projects. Looks like a new construction Old Metairie house except the location is the most ghetto part of the westbank. Talk about out of place.

You will slowly start to see vacant lots in that neighborhood. Soon these will pop up everywhere.

Street view shows houses with Subarus parked out front just a few blocks away. Looks like the white man is moving over the bridge.

Very difficult to build a house for less than $200 per sqft and the list price is $175 per sqft

Edit: I see it was listed originally 4 months ago at $285 per sqft and has gone through four price changes and a $200k drop in price

Maybe if they were using comps from Metairie

From OP’s picture the house looks massive. Click the zillow link and its 2200sq ft. Wow

Best bet is one of those college football stars turned professional affalete. They are known for their common sense and ability to reason.
