摘要

Same as any metropolis, New Orleans has a good many functioning industries, but tourism is arguably the most crucial. The pull of the French Quarter's historic cache and socially embraced infamy entwines with the business importance of the riverside Convention Center and the Superdome's dual function as football epicenter and massive music venue further uptown to bring the entire downtown area into what city officials regard as the "Hospitality Zone." That moniker lent its name to a piece of legislation that would have established a 10-year tax to fund repairs to more than 100 miles of substandard roadway within the zone. Would have being the operative words. The bill, like so many of its ilk, died a quiet legislative death. One major argument against it was the degree to which local businesses-and thus the tourism industry they support-would be adversely affected. It is, therefore, a pleasant irony to report that one portion of what the bill would have funded came to community-celebrated fruition by alternative means.
