If you would like to view a live view of the construction progress at the New Orleans VA Hospital/ Medical Center, click this link: http://www.earthcam.com/client/skanskamapp/umc/?cam=wzc

The site is great because you can click on a day in the calendar and see the progress for each day, week, or month.

This new facility will surely bring new jobs and will jump start the nearby real estate.  If you want to get into a property around the hospital before price takes off, you should contact Mirambell Realty for steals and deals in the area.
