Today, the Roosevelt Hotel opened in New Orleans, following a renovation of the roughly 115-year-old property. The site used to be the Fairmont Hotel, which closed after Hurricane Katrina and never reopened. Before it was the Fairmont, it was the Roosevelt.
The hotel opened to the public at 3 p.m. So, anyone who wants to check it out can. I got to tour it just before noon. Here’s a video I made from that tour.
