The city was named La Nouvelle Orleans after Philippe, Duc d’Orleans, and centered around the Place d’Armes (Jackson Square). The society who first inhabited the area was French in origin. However, in 1762, Louis XIV gave Louisiana to his Spanish cousin, King Charles III. Before the end of a short Spanish reign, the French Quarter suffered significant structural damage due to a fire that destroyed the city. Much of the original French architecture was replaced by Spanish styles. Soon thereafter, Louisiana was ceded back to France and was finally sold by Napo- leon Bonaparte to the United States as part of the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. NOLA’S COLLEGE FOOTBALL TEAM | 14 THE CITY OF NEW ORLEANS Home to championship-level sporting events THE MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME One of the most recognizable venues in all of sport. The Mercedes-Benz Superdome first opened its doors in 1975 and since then has played host to seven Super Bowls and five men’s basketball Final Fours. The venue also served as the home venue for Tulane football for 39 years. Future Championship Events in New Orleans 2020 - College Football Playoff National Championship 2020 - NCAA Women’s Final Four 2022 - NCAA Men’s Final Four 2024 - Super Bowl LVIII Since its infancy and through the ownership of three different nations, New Orleans has evolved into one of the most unique cities in the world. A mix of European, African, Caribbean and American influences, The Big Easy has its own atmosphere. Everything from the music to the architecture to the food is a delight to the senses. THE FRENCH QUARTER When most people think of New Orleans, the first thing that comes to mind is the world famous French Quarter, known to the natives as the Vieux Carre’ (the old square). The Quarter is a natural gathering place for residents and visitors alike. And with a wide variety of restaurants, shops and entertainment, anyone who doesn’t enjoy a trip to the Vieux Carre’ simply isn’t trying. THE GARDEN DISTRICT Just to the West of the French Quarter is the Garden District, which features a collection of beautiful and historic homes and is just minutes away from the Tulane University campus. MARDI GRAS No discussion about New Orleans would be complete without mentioning Mardi Gras. Perhaps the world’s largest free party, Mardi Gras is a celebration that lasts for months and takes place all over New Orleans from the French Quarter to the Garden District to Uptown. More than 30 parades “roll” through different areas of the city on nearly a daily basis throughout the season. The young and the young-at-heart alike enjoy the beautiful floats and costumes, the beads, doubloons, trinkets and the wide spectrum of music that make up the revelry that culminates with “Fat Tuesday.” 15 EXCELLENCE IN ACADEMICS -Tulane football continued to excel in the classroom this last year as 27 players were named to the 2017-18 American Athletic Conference All-Academic team.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.
