Sandalwood on the bayou side was there in the late 50’s, just before Morbraham. Evergreen came in mid to late 60’s. “Dead Man Walking” murders were down the road toward Loreauville, somewhere near the roundabout area if I remember correctly.
You’re right, it’s pretty much developed now, Belle Chase Elementary the draw for development.
I believe the LeBlanc/Bourque murders were off of Crochet Rd.
I love how the number gets higher and higher as time goes by. We did not bring 50k to Nola for the first bowl game. The total attendance was 42k. Next year was 48k against ecu and then 54k against Tulane. We’ve never brought 50k to Nola although we had the majority of the fans there minus the bowl game against usm.
It’s just a RP thing…like selling out the Cajun Dome for MBB.

There might be some attendance truthers out there who think there were 65K people in that stadium
