  • 20 August 2006 - New Orleans - Louisiana. Lower 9th ward. Jerome Benjamin (with weed-eater) and Louis Banks (mower) work to reign in the weeds at an abandoned Lower 9th ward property with flood grime thick on the windows, thick on everything that belongs to an elderly lady the men know as 'Grandma.' Everyone knew 'Grandma,' they say. Her real grandson was supposed to come by and get the gutted home ready for sale. He never showed up. The neighbourhood is deserted. It is hard to imagine anyone living here ever again.

  • 30 May, 2006. Lakeview, New Orleans, Louisiana. Mosquito breeding grounds. Stagnant pools and out of control weeds grow in the once affluent, predominantly white Lakeview neighbourhood close to the 17th Street Canal levee breach. Nine months after hurricane Katrina, burst water mains and ruined infrastructure continue to seep water, creating fetid pools where mosquitos breed.  Lakeview was devastated by flooding after Hurricane Katrina.

Waterways in and around the swamp at the Barataria Preserve wetlands south or New Orleans have become choked with thick weed following state budget cuts under Governor Jindal. The choked waterways impede flood control and deter valuable tourism related swamp tours, fishing and other recreational activities. <br />

  • 24 August 2012. New Orleans, Louisiana,  USA. .Blighted housing in the Lower 9th ward. In a tale of two cities, Hurricane Katrina devastated the area smashing almost all residences following the collapse of the levees. Whereas Brad Pitt's 'Make it Right Foundation' has provided a stimulus for rebuilding a limited area of the Lower 9th ward, much remains to be done as the 7th year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina approaches on August 29th..Photo; Charlie Varley.

Abandoned Six Flags amusement park in New Orleans East.<br />
Not amusing any more. <br />
'Closed for storm.' Six Flags former amusement park radiates an eerie post apocalyptic sense of foreboding in it's abandonment. The park was destroyed by hurricane Katrina in August 2005, stripped by copper thieves and is slowly being reclaimed by the land it stands on. The site is now home to thriving wildlife. Would be developers for the former Jazzland site have proposed various ideas over the years to revive the area into a theme park and shopping complex, proposals which have been rejected by the Industrial Development Board. <br />

  • 23 August 2013. Lower 9th Ward, New Orleans, Louisiana.<br />
Katrina 8 years later. In a tale of two cities, the hardest hit neighbourhoods struggle to revitalize and return. Brad Pitt's 'Make it Right Foundation' enjoys limited success with ecologically sustainable housing rebuilds in a handful of city blocks. A few residents have also rebuilt their properties. Yet many half finished or blighted properties and vacant overgrown lots remain dotted throughout the landscape with limited new construction projects. Residents who have returned complain of limited services, infrequent police patrols, high crime rates, rampant mosquitos and uncontrolled vermin. <br />
