New Orleans ORM Target Area Plans now available

brendan.nee — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 18:13:05 +0000

We added the New Orleans Office of Recovery Management’s Target Area Plans to our list of other plans. The drafts available on the ORM website were updated in September 2007 but the plans were actually announced in March 2007. These plans detail specific projects, or target areas throughout the city that the ORM feels can realistically be implemented in the next few years.

You can download and view the plans on the ORM website.

Berkeley Disaster Recovery Planning Class - Photo Project

Photos taken in April, 2007 have been compiled into a display including a timeline and poem. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this, notably Andrea Gaffney. The class spent part of its trip to New Orleans driving and cycling around the city and photographing various neighborhoods. Its pretty tough to get a feel for the extent of the damage & rebuilding progress without spending at least half of a day driving through New Orleans, outside of the neighborhoods typically visited by tourists. These photos have been placed on the map of New Orleans, roughly where they were taken and provide a snapshot of what the city was like in April 2007.

You can download a low-res pdf or a high resolution image (3 MB).
