  • 1 June, 2006. Lower 9th Ward, New Orleans, Louisiana. First day of hurricane season. Children of the storm return home. R/L; Arthur Murph clambers out of the rubble of what remains of his home. His daughters' friend Renisha Menendez (11 yrs) retrieves an evacuation suitcase he packed for his daughter Ariana, but was never able to get out before the home was destroyed. They stand in the wreckage of what used to be Murph and Ariana's home at 1739 Jourdan Ave in the devastated Lower 9th Ward. The huge barge which smashed through the original flood wall came to rest in front of their house, where a tidal wave of water rushed through, devastating the area where so many people died. Four of Arthur's neighbours perished in the storm. Arthur was in his home when the levee breached, he claims the night of the 28th August, 2005, the night before Hurricane Katrina made landfall. Arthur smashed his way out of his roof and swam to a neighbors house where he remained for 3 days awaiting rescue. Arthur can not go into details because of a pending lawsuit. He appears in the Spike Lee movie about the storm.

  • 1st Sept, 2005. Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans, Louisiana. Mass evacuation begins. A handful of extremely nervous Louisiana State troopers are all that holds 20,000 plus people from the busses. Before evacuees were permitted on the bus the mood was extremely tense with troopers preparing safe exit routes should the crowd simply storm the Macey's mall building in their desperation to reach the busses.

3 1/2 months after the storm, New Orleans continues to bury the victims. 77 year old widow Geneva is embraced by her grandson at the funeral of her husband Vincent Giuffre at Greenwood cemetery. 87 year old Guiffre died in the arms of his 77 yr old wife Geneva in New Orleans East as the flood waters swirled around their kitchen. Geneva placed her cat Patsy in her attic, fully expecting her beloved pet to die. She swam out of her back door, leaving her husband's body floating in the kitchen. She held onto the drain surrounding her house roof and made her way to the front of the building where she clung on to the drainpipe for 3 days. Geneva was rescued by helicopter, taken to Houston. Her frantic family did not learn that she was safe for 4 days. The only thing she was able to save from her house was her wedding ring. Geneva and Vincent had been married 56 years. Miraculously a neighbour saved her cat, discovering it alive 3 weeks after the storm hit. Geneva and her cat now live with her son Gary in Atlanta.<br />

  • 1 June, 2006. Lakeview, New Orleans, Louisiana. Contractors for the US Army Corps of Engineers work on the $50 million 17th Street Canal Interim Closure structure. The dam, designed to prevent water build up in the canal during hurricane storm surges is almost complete. Between 30 and 50 workers per 12 hour shift work around the clock, seven days a week to complete the dam. They continue to drive pilings into the water and have the center section left to complete. The barrier has yet to be automated with hydraulic lifts. For now the Army Corps must use cranes to manually close the structure. The pumping capacity is currently only 10% of pre hurricane Katrina levels, potentially leaving the affluent Lakeview neighbourhood unprotected.
