Developers' plan needs a do-over

In April developers working on the former Six Flags Park in New Orleans East turned over a 700-page master plan aimed at convincing public officials they were ready to sign a lease and get it started. 

But, Brenda Breaux, head of the New Orleans Redevelopment Authority that controls the site and heads up smaller projects across the city, panned the document, telling the Bayou Phoenix development group in a May 11 letter that a do-over was needed.

In that letter, she cited the master plan, which consists mostly of market and environmental studies that Bayou Phoenix commissioned, omits financing details and plans for infrastructure and demolition. (NOLA.com 05/26/23) Six Flags plan has huge holes, New Orleans officials say | Business News | nola.com
