Six Flags New Orleans Map and Brochure (2002 – 2005)
Built on the edge of a bayou and boxed in by levees, Six Flags New Orleans was a park that always felt half-wild, half-urban. A Six Flags New Orleans map once helped you trace wooden coaster tracks skimming swamp grass, find the flood-prone midway that turned into a maze after rain, and spot the small train loop that connected everything before the heat took over.

Food stands huddled near the lagoon, shows ran until the humidity fogged the lights, and the ferry-style bridge at the front gate was everyone’s meeting point.
It’s strange now to think how loud it once was—then again, silence is its loudest sound today.
Six Flags New Orleans Map 2005
In 2005, Six Flags New Orleans permanently closed following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. The park’s last operating day was August 21, with a planned reopening for August 27–28 canceled as the storm approached.
On August 29, Hurricane Katrina flooded the park under 12 feet of water, preventing it from ever reopening. Plans for a new water park to be announced later that month were also canceled due to the disaster.
