For Six Flags redevelopment, two proposals advance; Drew Brees, Demario Davis behind one
 

Two developers will vie over the next month for the right to redevelop the former Six Flags amusement park in New Orleans East after a public committee eliminated a third competitor and decided Tuesday to give the finalists more time to fine-tune their proposals.

One finalist is the partnership of Kiernan West LLC and S.H.I.E.L.D 1, a team that includes former New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, Saints linebacker Demario Davis and Buffalo Bills cornerback Joshua Norman. That group intends to build an urban farm, a series of educational centers and a transportation and logistics hub at the site.

The second is a consortium called Bayou Phoenix, It wants to put a hotel, indoor water park, sports complex, travel center and logistics hub at the former amusement park.

The Brees group among the finalist.
