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.
