Quick Facts

FOLC was founded in 2006. We have been advocating to preserve and revitalize the Lafitte Corridor and adjacent neighborhoods via the creation of a greenway. Read about our mission.

The City of New Orleans has contracted with Design Workshop to plan, design and construct a greenway in the Lafitte Corridor.

The official project website is: LafitteCorridorConnection.com.

Steering Advisory Committee

Lafitte Greenway Steering Advisory Committee (LGSAC)

In August, 2007, the New Orleans City Council passed two measures vital to the creation of the Lafitte Greenway:

  1. a resolution dedicating the City-owned land within the Lafitte Corridor for the creation of a greenway; and
  2. an ordinance establishing a committee charged with advising the Council concerning the greenway’s development.

This page of FOLC’s website is dedicated to introducing you to the members and work of the Lafitte Greenway Steering Advisory Committee.
