The Leo. E. Kerner Jr. City Park Multi-Purpose Complex is located in Jean Lafitte. [[Jefferson Parish Library]] operates the Lafitte Library inside the complex. The over {{convert|4500|sqft|sqm}} facility, which is almost three times larger than the previous library facility, opened on March 4, 2010. The previous library facility sustained damage during [[Hurricane Katrina]] and [[Hurricane Rita]], and the library contents were destroyed. The American Library Association donated $200,000 to the State of Louisiana, and the Louisiana Library Association's Disaster Relief Program awarded $20,000 of that to Jefferson Parish Library; the funds were used to rebuild the Lafitte Library. The previous library building became the Sheriff Harry Lee Police Station.<ref>"[http://www.jefferson.lib.la.us/branches/jplpage.lafitte.html Lafitte Library] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110129233023/http://www.jefferson.lib.la.us/branches/jplpage.lafitte.html |date=January 29, 2011 }}."
