It's funy that they're saying "power centers" are the new thing, hwne they've been around all along. People must have forgotten about the Toy-R-Us center and Hammond Aire.

I'd really like to see something like this for Juban Crossing, instead of a completely outdoor center.

The Streets at Southpoint in Durham, NC

this would be awesome !! With the LA heat this would make a lot of since!

This report from Livingston Parish News is about the Loop, but if you look at a commit from Mike Grimmer:

"Grimmer said Monday there is truth to the rumor that Disney is seriously considering a theme park in Livingston Parish, but cautioned that no decisions have been made yet."

I heard that the "Disney" interest is for a movie studio and not a theme park.

Anyone have any info on this or know Someone in the loop?

2000 acers is one helluva movie studio.

What I was told was that they are building a Movie studio first and will be moving Pix production here and some sets for ABC. They will also open a smaller park at a later time. They are also trying to purchase some additional land (1000-2000) The park will come later, I assume they will use the tax savings to build the park. This info was given to me from someone on who is helping with Loc. the Additional land.

It's probably this!

I just some info from a friend that is connected in real estate, and she told me that Disney has bought the 2000 acres. They are planning to have a Park and Resort. This will also help BR b/c they will be adding on to the Airport. I was told that a Press Conf. will be soon! Construction to start early 2009. This is what I was told, but I do not know how much is factual.
