Six Flags New Orleans is an abandoned theme park located near the intersection of Interstate 10 and Interstate 510 in New Orleans. It first opened as Jazzland in 2000, and a leasing agreement was established with Six Flags in 2002 following the previous operator's bankruptcy proceedings. Six Flags invested $20 million in upgrades, and the park reopened as Six Flags New Orleans in 2003. Following substantial damage caused by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the park was closed to the public in order to make efforts to repair and reopen it. However, in 2006, Six Flags declared the property a total loss, and the park was permanently closed as a result. The lease was later terminated in 2009, during Six Flags' bankruptcy proceedings.
