  • 1 June, 2006. Lakeview, New Orleans, Louisiana. First day of hurricane season. Kewit contractors of the Gilbert Southern Group working for the US Army Corps of Engineers work on the $41.5 million Orleans Canal Interim Closure structure. The structure, designed to prevent water build up in the canal during hurricane storm surges is almost complete. A worker talks on his cell phone amidst the structure. The pumping capacity has yet to match that of pre hurricane Katrina levels, potentially leaving the affluent Lakeview neighbourhood unprotected once again.

  • 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.

Abandoned Six Flags amusement park in New Orleans East.<br />
Not amusing any more. 'Closed for storm.' Six Flags.<br />
Signs of devil worship can be found on the site. From graffiti depicting 666 and upside down crosses. A security guard confirmed he has ejected Devil worshippers from the abandoned former amusement park. The park radiates an eerie post apocalyptic sense of foreboding in it's dereliction. The park was destroyed by hurricane Katrina in August 2005, stripped by copper thieves and is slowly being reclaimed by the land it stands on. The site is now home to thriving wildlife. Would be developers for the former Jazzland site have proposed various ideas over the years to revive the area into a theme park and shopping complex, proposals which have been rejected by the Industrial Development Board. <br />
