The Carrollton Hollygrove Cultural District (CHCD) will engage community stakeholders in activities designed to support the existing artistic endeavors and cultural production within its boundaries while incentivizing the creation of new opportunities. Through the distribution of tax reduced cultural district rules and other cultural district information, the CHCD will serve to connect artists and culture bearers with the existing and future outlets that will facilitate their continuing exposure. Once the process is initiated, the CDHD can function as a catalyzing force in connecting artistic venues, producers, and sellers. The CHCD can build relationships between working artists and businesses with little previous connection to the cultural resources of the community. The active promotion, and resulting exposure of art in everyday places, works to incentivize it. New cafes, stores and restaurants will be encouraged to feature art locally produced in Carrollton Hollygrove. The CHCD proposes an art partnership with Hollygrove Farm as it (the Farm) expands its programming into weekend “pop-up” brunch events so that culinary arts traditions present in the neighborhood are included. By connecting with the resources of the nearby Palmer Park Art Market, the CDHC can influence participation within its own boundaries and model future art market initiatives by the success realized there. The CHCD can promote the individual artists in its district through an embedded website portal in the Preservation Resource Center (PRC) website, through various PRC printed material, through social media, and within PRC’s physical headquarters. This information will also be shared with the network of 8 (eight) neighborhood organizations that are active within the proposed district. In tandem to supporting physical artistic endeavors, the CHCD will promote sustainable reuse of historic structures to maintain a strong physical sense of place in this community. By promoting the use of Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits, the CHCD can assist in the revitalization of the more challenging historic inventory that, when repaired, can better serve residents and potentially house new businesses. By accessing the tools provided by the City of New Orleans including property.nola.gov and the CZO (including Master Plan Amendments), neighbors have become increasingly aware of commercially or mixed-used zoning, and have voiced agreement that old corner stores and other residential-looking buildings which are zoned for mixed-use will better serve their neighborhood if (at least) partially occupied by full-time businesses. Along Apple St., there are 42 structures which could support a mixed-use occupancy in the future. One subcomponent of the CHCD will be to unite existing neighbors in the Apple Street corridor between Leonidas St. and Dante Street. Along Leonidas St. (beginning at Spruce St.) there are 50 such buildings; many take the form of old corner stores. PRC provides technical assistance specific to rehabilitation of old buildings. PRC also provides, with its partnership with ASI Federal Credit Union/A Shared Initiative Inc., homebuyer education

Grocery anchored by a new Winn-Dixie Supermarket, the site will feature both small shop retail and restaurant space, as well as the scarce opportunity for Junior Anchors to gain access to Orleans Parish.

The over 2 billion dollar campus-style facility is currently under construction and slated to open in 2013 and employ collectively more than 5,500 permanent jobs in the first 5 years it is in service. Over a 10 year period, this project will bring approximately 13,400 total jobs to Mid-City. New Orleans was recently named one of the 7 Cities that have Caught “Start-Up Fever” by Details Magazine.

  • Riverfront Expressway Cancellation, Shuddering at the New Orleans That Could Have Been
    Geographies of New Orleans Fifty Years After Riverfront Expressway Cancellation, Shuddering at the New Orleans That Could Have Been Richard Campanella Geographer, Tulane School of Architecture [email protected] Published in the New Orleans Picayune-Advocate, August 12, 2019, page 1. Fifty years ago this summer, reports from Washington D.C. reached New Orleans that John Volpe, secretary of the Department of Transportation under President Richard Nixon, had cancelled the Riverfront Expressway—the high-speed, elevated interstate slated for the French Quarter. The stunning news, about a wildly controversy plan that had divided the community for years, was met with elation by the city’s growing preservationist movement, and head-shaking disappointment by local leaders in both the public and private sectors. A half-century on, the cancellation and the original proposal invite speculation —part mental exercise, part cautionary tale—about what greater New Orleans might look like today had the Riverfront Expressway gone forward. And it very nearly did: conventional wisdom at the time saw the new infrastructure as an inevitable step toward progress, following the lead of many other waterfront cities, including New York, San Francisco, and Seattle. But first, a recap on how the New Orleans plan got to Volpe’s desk. Rendering from Robert Moses' Arterial Plan for New Orleans, 1946, page 11, courtesy collection of R. Campanella The initial concept for the Riverfront Expressway emerged from a post-World War II effort among state and city leaders to modernize New Orleans’ antiquated regional transportation system. Toward that end, the state Department of Highways hired the famous—many would say infamous—New York master planner Robert Moses, who along with Andrews & Clark Consulting Engineers, released in 1946 his Arterial Plan for New Orleans.
