Block Bordered by Pacific, Elm, Lamar, Poydras Poydras no longer exists in the Central Business District. The eastern end of this block was combined with the western end of the adjacent block to the east (the block bordered by Pacific, Elm, Poydras, Griffin), by taking out Poydras Street. Griffin was then "moved". This formed a new block bordered by Pacific, Elm, Lamar, and the "new" Griffin. Some retail storefronts still exist in this block.	Block Bordered by Pacific, Elm, Poydras, Griffin A couple of illustrated retail storefronts remain from the original block. 1011, 1013, 1015, and 1017 Elm were removed to relocate Griffin. The "new" Griffin was then extended southward, bisecting blocks shown on subsequent pages. After Griffin was moved, the eastern end of this block was merged with the western end of the adjacent block to the east (the block bordered by Pacific, Elm, the "old" Griffin, and Field). This formed a new block bordered by Pacific, Elm, the "new" Griffin, and Field.
