       I wish them well but have you seen what remains of that park
       after Katrina and a decade of vandalism and neglect?  The cost
       to bring back that park would be way beyond what NO should be
       spending on such a project.  That leaves a private company doing
       it and even with incredible tax breaks from NO and LA I'm
       doubtful of anyone wanting to invest there.  The park is not in
       a great area to start with and was never a leading park for SFI
       in the best of times.  Now the population of the area is greatly
       diminished which will just make any ROI even more difficult.
       Not allowing the pro Jazzland people to speak at the meeting is
       un-American and sad.

       Strange way to start a topic but I support any effort to bring
       the park back. Saw on the top image they want toa dd a hotel and
       a waterpark both good ideas sine the park itself struggled to
       make a profit. Similar to Hard Rock park it was building a bit
       too big to start with. Then to make matters worse kept expanding
       despite the lack of profit.
       I think the mixed-use area is also a good idea but Downfall with
       that is if the upper floors are offices or residents they tend
       to move in and make a fuss about the noise.

       Where did you hear that Magic Springs' SLC was supposed to go to
       Jazzland?

       Also, Bright Sun Films is doing a documentary on the site. Can't
       wait to see it.

       It was an interview with the manager but can't remember where it
       was. I'll do some digging to see if I can dig anything up.
