so part of our goal with the cultural innovation district is actually to use culture as an economic driveo we innovate our own culture so that we're able to benefit from it, at least equally? - if you're hoping to revitalize a neighbourhood, you have to connect it with the rest of the city. it's only logical. and what's the ideal way for a city to do that? if your answer wasn't "build a bike path", then you haven't been paying attention, have you? one of the infrastructural bonuses of the claiborne corridor is that it intersects with the lafitte greenway, a walkable and bikeable commuter pathway that runs through several neighbourhoods. i think it's the crown jewel of the new orleans bike network, partially because it's so comfortable and easy to ride, but also in the way that it acts as a bit of a spine for the network, as we have a lot of other bike lanes across through here and really creates a good connector through a major part of the city. - founded in 2003, bike easy believes in the power of bicycling to help create a healthy, prosperous, resilient, and equitable future for locals.
