History, people, fables and critical essays on the 24/7 life of the French Quarter. “The great music of the city is…when you say good morning and good evening.” (Mr. Jerome Smith)
Hmmm. Certainly seems useful to do a traffic study, but I wonder if they can also specifically spend some time monitoring truck traffic in certain quadrants, like the part of Chartres between Toulouse and the Square where the added restaurants seem to be taking their toll on that streetscape.
