Ridiculous.

"Although the site is on the French Quarter side of Canal, it is not in the area defined by city law as part of the Vieux Carre and is not under the control of the Vieux Carre Commission. The city considers the block between Canal and Iberville streets to be part of the Central Business District."

The decision of the Council is Appalling.

The city council and the general public appealed the planning commission vote. It goes up for re-vote next month.
