From the Gulf Coast to the East Coast, the West Coast to the Ozarks and along bodies of water is so many other places... you see vast waterfront development. Why don't we have any of that in or around New Orleans? There are no beaches, no boardwalks, no waterfront amusements. Where are the condos. restaurants and watersports?


Watersports, Dave?

Their water isn't dirty and the color of shite.

Eta: for New Orleans. Mandeville has a nice walk way on their lake front.

Mandeville old money killed a project that would have been a mixed use development on the water at the old concrete plant

Because any change in the city and the elites go ape shite with lawsuits and protests .

Lake Pontchartrain is the biggest waste of a natural resource ever..

Because even the smallest tropical storm floods the area around the lake.

The water is not attractive. The soil is mush. Tropical storms tend to wreck shite.

Remember that $4m soccer complex Drew Brees and Tom Benson wanted to build?

Yeah, that wasn’t the “elites” that opposed that. That was was liberal left wing SJW tree huggers.

Those are the people that are holding this city back

And as much as people don’t want to admit it, Latoya Cantrell is part of that group.

If I lived there I wouldn't want more development either. A lot of people believe in growth for growth's sake. Growth is not necessarily a good thing.
