I'm dead sure.
1. The crescent city connection does not come down in a diamond shape like the one in the clip. Don't know if I'm explaining right but check the pic.
2. Check the support structure closely. They do not match.
3. The second bridge does not exist in New Orleans. Think of the size of the ships that have to pass under any bridge there.
And, finally I've personnally viewed the New Orleans cityscape from across the river and it just doesn't match up.
I can't see where this could be anywhere on the Miss. River due to the river traffic and and that second bridge.
