All port towns face this risk not to mention the port town at the mouth of the third largest drainage system in the World , NO
They hadn't been hit with a serious hurricane in 100 years and now all of a sudden there's all this talk... Should the town be rebuilt. Yes and so should everyones homes.
Agreed. But lets face it, many middle class people will relocate for good once able. The history and charisma of NO cannot be recaptured. All lower class people will remain because, well, they simply can't afford to relocate. NO will go further into the dumps as a result.
Of course the city will be rebuilt to some degree, but I agree with previously mentioned assertions that it will be largely industrial. Industrial and LOTS more ghettos.
Every year during hurricane season nobody will want to have to go through this again (very much so a possibility every year). Being below sea level many people won't take that chance.
