The resort is at the foot of Canal Street near the Mississippi River, only blocks from Bourbon Street in the French Quarter, the site of a deadly scene early Wednesday. The operator said the hotel, casino, and sportsbook are also open, and security personnel are in place.

On Wednesday, at least 15 people were killed, and dozens more were injured by a man driving a rented white Ford pickup truck into pedestrians along Bourbon Street, a popular tourist destination.

"We remain committed to doing everything we can to ensure the safety of our people and to honor the victims as we seek justice," he said.

In a tweet, the governor noted he had dinner at a restaurant in the city on Wednesday after the incident. "Proud to be a part of this incredibly resilient city," he tweeted.

Sugar Bowl Postponed

The incident postponed Wednesday night’s scheduled NCAA football playoff game at Caesars Superdome between the Georgia Bulldogs and Notre Dame Fighting Irish. The Caesars Superdome is a little more than a mile from the Caesars New Orleans (formerly Harrah’s) resort, the only land-based hotel-casino in the Crescent City.

The two teams competing in this season’s Sugar Bowl, Georgia and Notre Dame, are vying to advance to the national title game on Jan. 20 in Atlanta. For the first time ever, 12 teams entered the post-season in a playoff format for the national championship.

The Sugar Bowl game originally set for Wednesday was rescheduled for Thursday afternoon. The winner will face Penn State in a semifinal game next week. The winner of that semifinal game will face the winner of the Texas-Ohio State semifinal for the national title.
