Rebuild New Orleans Recreational Facilities


It's for the kids woady. The lack of parks and courts for kids to play on in the city right now is staggering. Will the NBA help contribute to rebuild basketball courts in the city when it arrives in Feb. for the All Star Game? We shall see what happens, talk is cheap, doing is doing. In case the NBA needs some help or a place to start, here is a list of courts in the city which are in the worst shape:

-Lyons Center, 624 Louisiana Ave
-Joe Brown Memorial Park, 5601 Read Blvd
-Stallings Center, 4300 Saint Claude Avenue
-Odile Davis Park, Montegut & Law
-Samuel Square, 4400 Loyola Ave
