In this Wednesday, May 20, 2020, a bar is boarded-up at a Bourbon Street intersection in New Orleans French Quarter. Some residents of the historic French Quarter, while acknowledging the economic pain and suffering, say the lack of tourists has been a relief. The French Quarter is the 300-year-old historic heart of New Orleans. Kari Mote, who lives in the nearby Bywater neighborhood, is a waitress who lost her job at a French Quarter restaurant when the state shut down on-site dining. As the French Quarter slowly reawakens, Pellerin hopes city leaders resist the urge to relax such regulations or loosen noise limits in an effort to increase commerce and tax revenue.
