and what pray tell do you plan on doing with all the shipping that new orleans handles on the mississippi?



When Galveston, TX was hit in 1900 and destroyed, it was the US's main shipping port. The city was rebuilt, but it was never the same, instead Houston became the primary shipping port of TX, which is still is today. My money is on Baton Rouge growing like Houston did after the 1900 storm, and replacing NO as the primary port.
