In the final votes cast among this version of the New Orleans City Council before its newly elected members enter City Hall next week, a hotel planned for St. Claude Avenue in Bywater failed to get enough support for a required zoning change that would open the door for commercial development.

The zoning change covers part of a block that formerly housed events space The Truck Farm and several residences, which would make room for*the Sun Yard, a 37-room hotel with adjoining restaurant.
