A guy who designs fantasy maps took a look at the map of New Orleans and came up with a few criticisms.

Anyone here from New Orleans able to counter this?

Okay.


Red outline would dictate the boundaries for a parish, or county.


The mouth of the Mississippi River, Erosion took away land that was there.


Highway 90, an old highway before interstates were a thing.


Gulf Intracoastal Waterway- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_Intracoastal_Waterway

Lake Borgne was a lake at one point, but erosion happened.

The bridge from Metairie to Mandeville was constructed to, believe it or not, connect the two parishes the most direct way possible since before a ferry service was needed.

The Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet, or MRGO as it were Not used since the levees for it broke during Katrina.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
