^ What's happening to the parking lot south of City Square 162? Hopefully that gets redeveloped soon as well.

The report then showed pictures almost identical to the ones above, where you can still see those cracks. This was a lesson for later built buildings to use deeper piles.

I know it is said often by some people, but I would like to say thank you to those (especially to Tennis) who post frequently. Thanks for working so diligently and enthusiastically for keeping this thread active and up-to-date. I don't live directly in the city, but I love keeping up with what's happening.

I hope I live long enough (!) to be able to visit New Orleans after the Charity Hospital renovation is done.

Having seen the hospital many years ago, I can't wait to see the changes.
