As you can see, this neighborhood, much like most of the city, is still reeling from the aftermath of Katrina. The further you travel from downtown, the more damage you'll see. Entire street blocks still have their first floors boarded up. As is still the case, visitors without permission were not allowed in the Lower Ninth Ward. To be fair I must say that there is a considerable amount of reconstruction taking place in Mid-City, and the Mid-City Neighborhood Association is doing great things to help this area recover.
