To publicize its July 1 opening, The Roosevelt New Orleans passed out doughnuts and coffee to almost 500 taxi drivers recently at New Orleans International Airport, along with Roosevelt-branded packs of fare receipts to give to their fares. Hotel management was on hand to pass out the food while answering questions. The drivers, of course, were quite pleased with the event and echoed their excitement for the reopening of the hotel.
The cover story of this week’s Gambit features The Roosevelt New Orleans.
“We have the largest economic renovation in New Orleans post-Katrina,” Chambers says, leading the group up a narrow stairwell. “I think it’s the largest private investment in the city since Katrina — $145 million. Six-hundred-something jobs.”
