NerdOut November: Shovel-Ready Projects

  • The Stables 1229 Saint Thomas Street (near the intersection of Annunciation & Thalia) New Orleans, LA, 70130 United States (map)

Join us for the next installment of the working happy hour series in support of CBNO’s goal of Building Our Future here in New Orleans with historic levels of federal infrastructure dollars available through the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act (IIJA).

For this Nerd Out session, we’ll work on compiling and categorizing the many feasibility studies created for various infrastructure proposals across New Orleans over the last 5-10 years. Feasibility studies are a critical ingredient in a project’s journey from idea to reality. Without them, a project will not receive government funding. There are dozens of these studies for various transportation and other project ideas that have yet to become reality. With your help we’re creating a publicly available database to catalog which projects across New Orleans are ready and capable of receiving federal funding.

Bring a laptop or tablet, and any policy or planning nerd friends! We’ll have beer, non-alcoholic beverages, and light snacks for nerd fuel ;)
