I've always loved New Orleans, and would hop on a plane in a moments notice just to shop the French Quarter. I use to be sure I made it there at least once a year, but my last trip was at least three years ago if not more.

The French Quarter smelled of urine and beer, and was down right seedy looking.

I hope after he cleans up City Hall, he starts to work on cleaning up the French Quarter.

Sadly, the French Quarter has deteriorated. You are correct that it's gone from scandalous to seedy. Believe it or not, shop owners are out every morning hosing off their sidewalks to get rid of the filfth. I don't know if there's anything Nagin can do about it.

I was down in the French Quarter last month and the only foul smell I ran across was from a couple of horses. Otherwise, it was very nice that day.

Yes the French Quarter smells of urine & beer (don't forget vomit) & if you don't keep walking your feet stick to the sidewalk but I love that city. I can't get enough of it. I must go once a year. It's unique, one of a kind.
