A development group led by local businessman Troy Henry was selected Monday to move forward with redeveloping the former Six Flags amusement park site in New Orleans East, following the withdrawal of a Colorado developer that enlisted celebrity backing from former Saints quarterback Drew Brees and other star NFL players.

At the same time, Mayor LaToya Cantrell’s administration announced that Telluride, Colo.-based Kiernan-West, which had partnered with Brees and Saints linebacker Demario Davis, would proceed with plans for a transportation and logistics center somewhere else in the area.

Bayou Phoenix has proposed redeveloping the site into a multi-use property, with a warehouse and logistics hub along with an indoor water park, a hotel, an e-sports arena and an athletic complex, according to a copy of the group's proposal.

my guess is this will be a lot more warehouse and logistics hub and a lot less indoor water park.

Metal detectors won’t be enough to keep the guns out.

This is a terrible investment opportunity. It’s not even a good money laundering opportunity.

With all those ball fields Lil Braydén is going to have to learn to dodge bullets while fielding fly balls.
