So definitely agree they should consider moving. But its ultimately up to them since they own the property and the Port own the old terminal casino building next door.

Just FYI, Mardi Gras World does not own the property they use as a float den. Its complicated, but they also lease that property from the Port.

What's the restaurant going in at Chartres and Iberville?

Also--do we know if Boulevard still plans on opening a F.Q. location?

I thought that was the case too but the assessors site shows them as the owner now? has something changed?


Probably for developers sake best if all owned by the port

Doesn't say the name of the restaurant just a placeholder ... I'm sure boulevard will go there. .. creole cuisine concepts has been expanding like crazy.

I actually think they will do well there especially for people looking for something less traditional nola.



Also, as a general observation. The quarter is exploding with new restaurants reopening; some in vacant spots, or reopening or new concepts. its good to see the rebound from covid. I count about 25 venues in quarter since the beginningof the year opening or coming soon

Nothing has changed -- The tax assessor's website is incorrect. Hopefully at some point it will get corrected.

The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) announces a tasking to Modjeski and Masters, Inc. (M&M) to design a new decorative lighting system for the Crescent City Connection bridges in New Orleans. The design is for controllable and programmable LED lights on the trusses of the bridges, along with lights illuminating the piers. The contract includes, but is not limited to, plans, specifications and special provisions, construction estimates, illumination analysis, and engineering calculations for replacement of the existing decorative lighting system.

“As a child, I watched the construction of the second span of the Crescent City Connection bridge, an iconic symbol of New Orleans that has lost its ability to reflect against the night sky,” said DOTD Secretary Shawn D. Wilson, Ph.D. “As one of my last actions as secretary, I am proud to initiate new LED technology that will allow us to showcase the bridge like never before, while at the same time moving to a technology that uses a fraction of the energy to run. Equally important, working with New Orleans & Company and the convention and tourism industry, we are introducing a new model of sustainable operations.”

The design phase is the fifth of six parts of a standard DOTD project. The final phase, construction, is scheduled to be let later this year and completed by the end of 2024. DOTD estimates the construction phase to cost $16.5 million.
