It\u2019s been more than six years since families arriving on flights to New Orleans<\/a><\/strong> passed through the gates at Six Flags. Heavily damaged and partially submerged during Hurricane Katrina, Six Flags New Orleans has been abandoned for the better part of the past decade.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now, as New Orleans<\/strong> finally regains its footing, city officials are weighing eight options for revitalizing the defunct theme park<\/strong>. The eight proposals currently on the table include everything from an electric power plant to a new \u201cgreen\u201d amusement park.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is the most progress made since plans to build a Nickelodeon-themed park on the site fell through in 2009. Still, nothing is expected to happen overnight.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A committee will look at each proposal\u2019s financial impact before making any new decisions.<\/p>\n
