Bruce Boyd Raeburn, curator of the Hogan Jazz Archive at Tulane University, said that he might say this was the second, if not the third, opportunity to do something with a Louis Armstrong site where the opportunity has been missed. Mr. Raeburn said that a lot of the old jazz sites had been torn down to make new parking lots. Mr. Raeburn added that the track record on preserving jazz-related sites was pretty dismal for New Orleans. Yet this is a city that is probably more dependent on the marketing of jazz than any other, as tourism is one of the few engines of the local economy.
