New Orleans Residents Reacts To Harrahs Casino Being Changed To Caesars Palace. (See Concept Photos)

This week in New Orleans news has been a big one!

After years of hearing rumors about the Harrahs Casino renovation, we finally get to see what it will look like as Caesars Palace! This has been met with mixed reviews by the city of New Orleans of course. This isn’t the type of news you drop on a starving economy.

Although there are citizens who understand that this isn’t coming from the city’s budget most citizens have been pointing fingers. The $325 million dollar renovation has citizens thinking the city is irresponsible but that isn’t the case.

The renovation is more a name change than a business exchange. This didn’t stop locals from taking to twitter to air out their concerns about the city’s current state.

Do you think New Orleans will bounce back?
