Klappentext zu „Reese, C: New Orleans Under Construction “
When the Levee broke in August 2005 as a result of Hurricane Katrina, 80% of the city of New Orleans was flooded, with a loss of 134,000 homes, and 986 lives. In particular, the devastation hit the vulnerable communities the hardest: old, the poor and the African-American. The disaster exposed the hideous inequality of the city. In response to the disaster numerous plans, designs and projects were proposed. This bold, challenging and informed books gathers together the variety of responses from politicians, writers, architects and planners and searches for the answers of one of the most important issues of our age: How can we plan for the future, creating a more robust and equal place?
