Municipal Auditorium development plans invited
Four years after Hurricane Katrina's floodwaters inundated the city-owned Municipal Auditorium, New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin's administration is seeking proposals from developers on the best way to get it back into operation.
However, it appears that anyone expecting the 79-year-old building -- officially the Morris F.X. Jeff Municipal Auditorium, though the full name is rarely used -- to be used once again as an auditorium will be disappointed.
The administration's request for proposals, or RFP, says it wants proposals "for an alternate adaptive use of this historic structure" and its operation "as a long-term economic commercial business enterprise."
