Rebuilding New Orleans one brick at a time...

For almost five years since Katrina, people from all over the world still look at New Orleans as a place of rundown buildings and murderers who run rampant throughout the city. Although I admit New Orleans still has some places that aren’t as developed as other cities, New Orleans in general has come a long way. In an attempt to reveal to the naked eye these drastic transformations, I intend on gathering pictures from several sources and information obtained from others and myself. If you or any others have any pictures from before or after Katrina, I would greatly appreciate if you would send it to me. I'm currently on a search for pictures, which include some of the shopping centers and places all around the city such as Tulane Ave, Canal St, the mall which used to exist over by the superdome with Macy’s in it, Carrollton shopping center (both the Rock n’ Bowl one and the one closer to Xavier), Metairie, and Kenner. Let our voices echo throughout the city with pride and dignity knowing that we, as New Orleanians, actually have made it through the flood, recession, and drought. No matter what happens, we as New Orleanians stand strong, and the Saints winning the Superbowl only proves our success. Our city is coming back on its feet day by day and each change will only make it even better.
