    On the one hand, a lot of that was fucking stupid. Leaving out swaths of Broadmoor, Gentilly and 7th ward seem as absurd now as they did almost twenty years ago. Moon Landrieu lived in Broadmoor! But the lower 9 and parts of New Orleans East? Yeah, the city had been stagnating for fifty years by K and those neighborhoods had been in steep decline and there should have been a conversation about how much territory the city could properly administer going forward. Instead we punted and let Brad Pitt rebuild the 9 with a bunch of shitty houses. Also, pretty crazy how some of those proposed greenways actually ended up being built. Lafitte Greenway is one of my favorite things that’s happened in the past decade.

    I don’t understand what this is trying to solve for. The levee reconstruction cost the Corp of Engineers something like $15B - it will need to be bolstered again soon and will be expensive but I’d doubt anything close to $100B over the next century.

    Well, for context, this happens pretty much every year to some extent in Lower Plaquemines. When I was a kid the saltwater went all the way to Kenner in 1988 and there was a barge with freshwater outside the FQ iirc. But that was a few days and this could last longer. So not entirely an issue of the folly of New Orleans’ existence, though that’s definitely a fruitful debate that could go on for hours over beers in the S&WB’s sex dungeon.

    Yeah San Francisco is a political machine anyways, whoever succeeds her will just hold the seat for decades like she has but may never develop her fundraising power. So I guess that’s going for her.

    Lol no, of course not - she is the matriarch of the party. My boy Scott Weiner is the most likely successor; he formed an exploratory committee but I have to think he’ll wait his turn. Which is a shame, because 1) he’s been the most prominent politician on housing issues in Sacramento as this issue has ascended to national attention and 2) he’s in his 50’s and still at the kids table. These boomers need to fuck off. Also, tell me this isn’t the San Francisco politician the people want.
