The city itself, and Canal Street in particular, didn't exactly hold on to the streetcars. In fact they rejected them back in the 60s, and it was only through the action of concerned citizens that the St. Charles line was saved. Fortunately the city administration eventually came around to its senses, pushed no doubt by the downtown hotels and casino, and rebuilt the Canal St. line, populating it with air-conditoned replicas of the "real" streetcars that were subsequently flooded. As an uptown resident, I can't wait to get "my" streetcars back!Randallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03607259821954490651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2482245144313010200.post-78272303422371899992007-12-09T04:04:00.000-06:002007-12-09T04:04:00.000-06:00I love this picture.

Thanks for the nice words on my blog: I love that kind of restaurants too, due to the untouched authenticity they provide. There is nothing fake in there: they serve their own wine, and food from local producers. And the music is as authentic as it can get :).Larahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10389922868709027304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2482245144313010200.post-74547447931902110762007-12-08T07:43:00.000-06:002007-12-08T07:43:00.000-06:00You've convinced me!
