NEW ORLEANS PICTURES
Post Katrina
Photos by Jerry Porter
| We
have traveled to New Orleans three times since Katrina in April 2006,
January 2007, and January 2011. The 2006 photos show the damage
thoughout the city. The 2007 and 2011 photos focus on the Lower
Ninth Ward which bore the brunt of the flooding and which has been the
slowest to recover. |

Photos of the Seventh Ward and Lakeview (2006)
The pictures of Lakeside and the Seventh Ward were taken through a bus window. Most of the damage here was due to flooding from the breech of the Seventeenth St. levee and from the high winds. Pay attention in the photos to the high water line, the trailers where people are living, the blue tarps on the roofs, and the debris that is everywhere. |
