It was a little hard for me to find but definitely on my bucket list. The Google site has a phone # and a very nice woman will help you over the phone with hours, directions, and info.Very detailed boards on display to not only describe what happened before, during, and after Hurricane Katrina, but this tiny outside museum is located in the heart of a neighborhood that was entirely washed away from the hurricane just feet from some of the failed levees. You can look around you and see everything from still empty lots to newly rebuilt homes to current construction projects. I learned and saw much. Worth the stop if youre in downtown New Orleans.

Lots of info on the flooding. The house gave me the chills. I like how they left part of it untouched so people could see how it looked

I took my city tour guests to this new museum. They were able to see what residents found when they returned to New Orleans after hurricane Katrina. This is a new exhibit where one of the levees broke during hurricane Katrina.

Great effort to educate the public on what happened and more importantly the myths of people believe went wrong and what actually went wrong. I have to admit, as someone with great loss from Katrina and a native to the area, this was more informative than I expected. There was even a section on the St. Ritas incident too. Although the more appreciative thing I found was the section that tells you the yellow bricks you walked on was the house that was on that particular location. They are completely sustained off donations, so please donate. I did.

A lovely site to read the historical documentation, sense the utter vulnerability of the community to the forces and powers in motion that day and lament their loss. Take the time to honor their sacrifice. ️

Very small look at a very large life event. I wouldnt call this a must unless you believe in visiting the past to see what the future holds.
