23 August 2013. Lower 9th Ward, New Orleans, Louisiana.
Katrina 8 years later. In a tale of two cities, the hardest hit neighbourhoods struggle to revitalize and return. L/R; Josh Gillikin and David Rosa, contractors working for Brimmer Construction Services begin the extensive process of rebuilding a formerly derelict house. Many half finished or blighted properties and vacant overgrown lots remain dotted throughout the landscape. Residents who have returned complain of limited services, infrequent police patrols, high crime rates, rampant mosquitos and uncontrolled vermin.
