This may have been the article I recalled...but I can't recall...no conspiracy theories, but quite a bit of board room handshakes and such...even MB Superdome is mentioned...way before Jazzfest was even confirmed...:

Edith's former home in the Quarter was on Ursulines at the corner of Dauphine.

A whitewashed brick, two-story with green trim and a balcony.

Look for it.

Wifey just reminded me Preacher filmed one block down from us at an old bank building.

Cars were involved, so maybe a bank robbery?
