Oops. Tom wrote, "The old wooden church burned to the ground in 2011, and the school and gymnasium were eventually demolished by the city in 2013." It didn't all burn.

I think when a major reno is needed on a place like this, it would then trigger a requirement that it be fully updated to current code. That and fixing the damage could easily exceed the cost of a new building. That's my guess.

Yeah, but looks and smell aren't everything.

That line would be the actual sea level. I think the lowest areas below sea level in NO were about 15 feet or so. The entire area is sinking as a natural process for river delta deposits.

conservation of matter BKW

YAY - a New Gallery - thank you so much. The WATERLINE - can´t stop looking at it......

Thanks for a great gallery and I look forward to the next one!

That globe would be nice to keep.

Autoguy what do you mean "It all burned"? Was there a fire after this?

If all the garbage from all the disasters ends up in landfill, I don't think the planet can take it. Where do they put all this stuff - these chairs etc? In the landfill?

Good one, autoguy LOL

You people are so funny! LOL

The tiles stayed stuck to the walls.

Interesting.

Wonderful, a new gallery. You have the greatest photos, Mr. Motts.
