Hopefully, some of the planning around campus and the Nicholson corridor will make transportation btw campus and downtown a little better, and have a bonus of offering more places within walking distance to the stadium to eat, drink, shop, etc


What's wrong with the North Gate area?



I mean, it could probably use some more bars, but as far as visiting fans go, it's got pretty much everything you need.

Besides getting your car towed by Riverside if you so much as slow down at a stop sign?

I used to spend a lot of time in that area when I was in college....still had all the old bars. Once that new development came up and pushed out the old scene, Riverside started playing nasty.

It's frustrating the potential the Northgate/State St area has but at its current state, is pretty meh

1) The bike shop & that latte shops exterior are awful
2) Highland/State area needs to be repaved, add curbs that aren't crumbling and it'd be cool if they painted/bricked a LSU logo/tiger at the intersections
3) Plant trees/Benches and take away the parallel parking infront of The Varsity, etc
4) remove that Shell and build some type of development there. One of the only things I retained in my Landscape Architecture class is that gas stations/liquor stores attract trash to the area. Couldn't be any more true
5)That old Gatty's needs to be developed into something too

That's just a start
