A few more New Orleans neighborhoods

The Garden District


I hear that Brad and Angelina recently purchased a house in this area (which, like the French Quarter, stands on high ground and wasn’t flooded).

This picture is of a relatively new neighborhood. Designed by FEMA.

Edgewater Park


Those aren’t out-of-town guests living in those trailers.


Some of the many blue roofs of New Orleans – FEMA tarps distributed after Katrina (which was a year and a half ago, for those who have lost track)

The lower 9th


This neighborhood was right next to the levy breach. Many houses were simply washed away.

More later.

  1. Thank you for posting the photos. There is no excuse for the way we forget what atrocities happened, and continue to happen in N.O. Thanks for reminding me.

  2. Hi, I’m visiting via the carnival. Thanks for posting these photos. What a stark reminder of the devastation in New Orleans. I can’t imagine what it’s still like for all those people even this long after the fact….
