NEW ORLEANS | The GOOD, BAD and the UGLY. A Tour of Downtown
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ส.ค. 2024
- New Orleans is a special city. The culture in the Big Easy is more unique than what you'll find in most other large cities throughout the U.S. Whether it's Mardi Gras, the Creole or Cajun cuisine, the music scene or the architecture that's found in the French Quarter, most visitors are able to have a good time when they visit New Orleans. On the flip side, there's a lot of things to not love about New Orleans. The threat of another severe hurricane or flood is real. So is the high crime rates, and the economic/population decline. It'll be interesting to see what the future holds for this city.

New Orleans has so much potential to be great again. You can just see it and feel when you talk to locals.
Only on high ground. The lower wards will always flood.
we will never die baby
Great video. A huge under-the-surface issue in New Orleans and a big driver of people moving away recently is the insurance crisis. A lot of insurance companies aren't writing policies on the Gulf Coast since Hurricane Ida so a ton of people got dropped and have been trouble finding new coverage. The one's that still held on have been getting 200%+ higher renewals. I know someone who 's renewal premium this year was $18k (up from $4k last year). This doesn't even take into account flood insurance.
That’s insanity
From $4k to $9k 🤬
Speaking as someone whose family has been here for over 180 years now, I would say this was a pretty fair assessment, and for the most part accurate. When New Orleans lost most of its middle class, it left a lot of very poor people, and some very wealthy ones, which skews the housing prices, etc. That, coupled with the crime, makes living expensive. I have a real love/hate relationship with this area - it can be very frustrating. I would take some issue with the recreational opportunities - the fishing in this area is world-class. Other than that, just work on your pronunciation of our local terms, etc.
Chris, this looks like it's going to be a GREAT series I have been to New Orleans a few times, nothing like a Fresh Hot Beignet generously sprinkled with confectioners' sugar served with Sweet Tea. I think I just gained ten pounds. Love the humor/information ratio.
So so spot on! This production is incredible as to how it captures the simultaneous deep pros and cons with smart finesse. I have known several people who have lived here for a long time and described it the same way. The very unique detailed history and analysis are narrated with filming that captures it....yeah parts occasionally look like a typical American city but many other parts are from almost another planet...truly exotic and masterful. I am a history nut but knew only about 5-10% of what was given beforehand. Yes I have been here and yes there are enormous problems but NOLA is truly very special which I hope this excellent presentation will inspire others to see for themselves. Thank you so much!
I always look forward to your videos. This one did not disappoint. I love this video!😊❤
Thanks!
Come see Chalmette. St Bernard Parish. Its great! 5 minutes from Nola. The only place that was 100% destroyed from Hurricane Katrina. They forgot about us everything mentioned at that time on the news was New Orleans but we're striving! Beautiful historic place with great ppl. Also the battlefield of the war of 1812. Come see us.
I made a mistake on my comment saying your view of my city was bad. It was another video I was attempting to find. Yours is good! Also- if you find anyone who is interested in empty office buildings please get in touch. We do that, we also have production studios in the CBD. Thanks for not shaming our city! The other guy did, and that was wrong of him. It was wrong of me to type a comment without being sure of the source.
700 Frenchman Street. My home for 2 months in 1977. It was a teenage crisis runaway center called the Greenhouse. Just 6 blocks from the quarter.
Really do great with the vids will always watch them
Thank you!
I grew up there, spend the first half of my life in NOLA. Have lived in Chicago and Chicagoland since. I've traveled quite a bit, too. Love it or hate it, and there are ample reasons for both, there is no more interesting city than New Orleans.
When visiting, you have to see at least one of the plantations on Highway 18, by Wallace & Edgard, Louisiana. The French Quarter was where the largest slave auction in America was located. 1811 was the biggest slave revolt in history. America and her capitalism, destroyed a great city with the most unique culture in the country.
I was born and raised in New Jersey. 1 hour from NYC and 2 hrs from Philly, i hate NYC, I was in New Orleans for 5 days. I love it in New Orleans! I wanna move there!
Be very careful, Brian. I'm Creole and my family home is New Orleans but that city can be very dangerous so watch your ass, my friend.
Great video. Plan on visiting New Orleans for the first time on June 13th for my girlfriend's birthday. Video is very helpful in planning on where to go.
Apologizes for his French pronunciations ... but then goes and drops this nuke at 38:37
Thanks for the videos, I've been binging them.
Salute To New Orleans All The Way From Cincinnati. 💯
Another helpful video on New Orleans.
You think New Orleans will ever get on the same level economically as cities like Houston, Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville etc.?
thanks chris!
New Orleans just feels like a different city now.. you can really feel the locals have left now. It's a bunch of non-natives traversing an empty GTA map now
Definitely not a place to live. Stay on Canal and Bourbon St. Cutting though the side streets can be dangerous, by overall a good place to visit.
As a New Orleans native, you’re pretty spot on
What people fail to realize is that New Orlean is a FRENCH creation like Michigan (De Troit). The more that people realize that the Cheese Eaters in Paris own our arses the better because knowledge is power which is why I try to know lots of stuffs
Yup, there's a lot of French influence across the U.S.
It was Spanish first. The French don't own anything lol
That’s NOT harmony circle ….. that’s LEE CIRCLE…
Another beautiful downtown.careful nawlins!😮😅😊
Will you ever do a video on Gary Indiana or Camden New Jersey?
Yes and yes don’t know when though
I'm at Archie Manning's brother in the VA in North Little Rock.
I meet him,gosh I hate spell
Check
As someone born and raised in New Orleans and currently living in Las Vegas, I'll just say this...when moving to Las Vegas lessens your daily interaction with political corruption, violent crime and ongoing daily infrastructure issues...that's a MAJOR red flag! New Orleans has become the alcoholic floozy at the end of the bar. The one that always looks disheveled and whose best days were decades ago but sits there mumbling to herself and anyone who will listen that "she's still got it." The last two Mayors of Las Vegas are a former mob lawyer, followed by his wife...and folks HERE laugh at how inept, corrupt and flat out ignorant that city leaders of New Orleans are. ETA: is 24:41 a joke that I'm missing? I mean, D-Day was Doomsday for many people but still...
If New Orleans sinks, where will the the pelicans and saints move to?
Hmm… Shreveport.
The Saints could move to San Antonio since they did briefly play there.
The Westbank
I read that New Orleans is losing 25 square miles of land each year, and will be underwater by 2050. Sounds similar to the predictions for D.C...
Canal street had the first movie theater in the US not in the world 🤓
I'm sure you had good info, but you video was hard to see.
How?
Too much editing, too many cut... it huts my eyes...
New Orleans is a dirty city. Louisiana cities arent impressive.
Charleston SC , is waaaay better the NOLA
@@adamsnelson4689it’s not but ok.
White flight was the demise of this city.
Yes ! They lost their tax base !!!
In fairness, my inlaws were beyond patient. When LaToilet should have been recalled, but wasn't (on technicalities), it was the last straw. They took everything, money included, to MS.
WHAT THE HELL RU GUYS TALKING ABOUT ? What's WHITE FLIGHT ? What is LE TOILET ? A CO. 4 MAKING COMMODES . MAYBE ANOTHER NAME 4 NEW ORLEANS
@@bryanprince5276 - you’ve never heard the term white flight? And the failure of a mayor is LaToya Cantrell. That’s why she called her LaToilet.
First
All of your LSD-like video enhancements are really so tiring. They denigrate the overall quality of your presentations and the psychedelic effects are so just so pedestrian.
Not a fan of new orleans. Can't believe they're hosting the super bowl next year
Geau SAINTS !!!!!!
Unbelievable , I think they just dart where they want to conduct the Superbowl, horrific place.
Cool nobody asked
I have a fake wallet and cell phone I use for driving through NOLA
You really know what's up with New Orleans, God Bless You ,be careful and take care
It’s not that serious yo you must be white that’s why you think like that
Have you ever had to use them? 😂
@@johndeer8489 no, it looked a lot more dangerous on TV
Cuz in Mobile, Alabama phone number
New Orleans is a city - not a town !!!
thats every major city that has bAD and homeless
Thank god, you are at least acknowledging climate change in this video
Lol
😂😂😂😂😂
