- The city that went under in the surging waters of Hurricane Katrina has not returned, not to how it used to be. A decade later, New Orleans is an improvisation, one that is establishing a new normal.

I was raised in New Orleans East, Katrina hit when I was 12 years old. The city is so different now, sometimes it boring. My family evacuated to Chicago after Katrina...when we returned in 2006 the city was quiet and still. After Katrina the East changed a whole lot, it became riddled and shaken with crime on the daily. I eventually moved to Texas....New Orleans just never go be what it was before Katrina period.
I remember back in high school in St. Louis when hurricane Katrina hit. We gave a standing ovation to this black kid for surviving the disaster and we can tell in his eyes that he was hurt by everything.
I miss my city New Orleans my house was destroyed in katrina we came back rebuild our house but now me and my parents moved here to Texas two months ago I miss my city
On the serious note, I'm so sorry that that happened to you like so many others, I hope everyone has healed their wounds or at least tried to
+Caleb Rodregez thanks and we tried to move on but the the city will never be the same
+Madberty duh I know
i feel you katrina came when i was 2 years old now we live in texas
Gameboy Hotline good luck for hurricane harvey
I used to live there. Went back during Mardi Gras last year, so gentrified. Lack of affordable housing is rampant. It's like a cause celebre for people with money to snatch up property, AirBnB's, etc.
How did they gentrify it ? ((saying that in a calm non ass hole way because I'm actually interested in learning more about this)) are the houses different, the people different ?
I'm sure what happened is that changes in the housing stock turned everything upside down. Not only were there fewer houses, but the ones that came back were either brand new or complete renovations. A smaller, but newer, supply of houses naturally drove up prices so that the poor who lived there couldn't afford to come back. A lot of people with families stayed in Houston, or Atlanta of Memphis because they had better school systems. A lot of new people moved in, like that Latina lady, because they smelled opportunity or because they wanted a part in rebuilding a city.
Airbnb doesn't own any real estate.
looks like housing prices are settling and maybe they'll start to come down.
KidPersepolis I like some hostels in the warehouse district. $20. a night. 1 mile to the CBD and most points like so
My mother is from NOLA. Her brothers still live there. They both own their homes and have their own businesses. However so many pre Katrina locals who also own their homes and businesses chose to leave because they lost everything, and they didn't want to start over in a city below sea level. That's when gentrification starts....when local owners leave. Even then, I think a lot of the new owners will leave when the next Katrina hits. Levees only do so much. Katrina was the latest opportunity to raise the city above sea level. My mom said the same thing about Audrey. She and my dad left NOLA after Audrey. Their adult lives were just starting, and they knew anything they rebuilt would be swept away by the next major hurricane. 12 years later, Camille hit, wiped out everything, and still no effort to raise the city above sea level.
How would you even begin to raise the level of the land to above sea level?
You don’t just raise the earth...what kind of crack are you on?
Wow. It's just so sad and disappointed on how this country let the city and the locals down like this. I hate that so many families lost everything and still wasn't able to come back home.
@@tigerbait134 Lol i laughed at how pathetic that part was
Everybody need they home back. EVERYBODY.
New Orleans is the best city ever. I was born there and I love the seefood and Jazz music!❤ Nothing will stop be from loving the city that I live near by!
That's my hometown i miss new Orleans alot now i live in Chicago and it's not like down south
It used to be the best city ever now the white people flooding it & watering down everything. Not racist that's just the truth it don't have that authentic feeling no more. The whites can't bring that jazzy soul spirit like the locals.
Ghost You see what blacks do to cities? lol
housing went up and so did eating out in restaurants. i've been back a few times. operating hours were extremely limited too i think due to a shortage in labor but they've bounced back here.
PuppyMelyy ikr Mel? Buster Holmes for 35 cents a plate?
This is very well done. The social engineering story of new New Orleans needs to continue to be told. This is a very important part of American history and is heartbreaking to see it happening first hand. My hometown likely will never truly be home again although it's been 10 years since I've tried to pretend.
Brandt Vicknair where do you live now?
And 12 years later the scars still exists they've made little effort to help the people rebuild the place they call home I went there last year even though it was my frist time something felt missing from my trip still till this day I can't figure out what it was some of the buildings did have the signs the relief workers put on them some had just dates and numbers and how many people in side it others had non found and a piece of paper on the door ... TBH l will say New Orleans is such a beautiful city the citizens here are strong and they will pull through
Keep playing the music , music brings people together
my old house was in this...
Josiah Frazier wow...depressing
Lies
im sorry
Savage Beastboy shutup
We r lost for you house
glad to hear that some positive things came out of all that devastation
wow, at risk of sounding utterly cliche, a very touching and bittersweet little doc. thanks, nyt!
it will never be the same.
It could easily be tho
Glad to know the city is recovering and becoming an even better place to live than it use to be.
It's not recovering, it is and will always be a crime filled ghetto run by criminal city and state officials.
pytko3 yup
New Orleans will never be the same so sad .
What happened what’s different about it?
@@gamingwithbenroblox8935one of the worst hurricanes in USA history happened. It’ll never be the same. Ever.
Im from Australia. How can i help???.... all i need is a bed and food. and I'll work for free for 3 months
You can't help New Orleans. New Orleans can't be helped. It needs to go back in the Gulf of Mexico.
if you still want to help plenty of ppl epesically the elderly need help from the August 2016 flood. One of the worse floods in history.
even families that relocated after katrina endured this flood!!! it's so crazy.
Same here I’m in uk and I do same even though it’s been years on can’t believe there own country has not really helped them all I can say is the people in New Orleans are strong and have lot fait
@@Rudenbehr Very pessimistic...
I miss my city so much
I visited NO last year. It is so beautiful, and the people there are unbelievably friendly. I felt like I was at "home," even though I was hundreds of miles away from my house. God bless you, your family, and New Orleans.
Soooo good....outstanding journalism....my thanks!
Didn't like how they showed the hard working Spanish lady, that saved and started her own business, then right after showing the begging black couple looking for gov assistants, to the little idiot dude that rather live in projects than in something nice and clean. Wasn't that good of journalism to me.
+HyPoWorLD Tv We expect great journalists to bring things we may not like in terms that move us.
+HyPoWorLD Tv they helped the Spanish lady too but didn't show that part
I Survived Hurricane Katrina
Same, in California safe and sound ☺️
The-terminator i also live in california too lol
That was beautiful. I’m so happy for the residents of New Orleans. It’s unfortunate some of the old residents couldn’t afford living back home after the event took place but at least the silver lining is that the city alive and well and booming. I was in 4th grade I think when I heard the news.
Mohammed Redwan
I'm going there tomorrow from Cali :)
i went to help the 9th ward in a wood canoe. i went to nola before the storm to stay with a friend to help him out bc I'm a mechanic
i've always lived on the west bank which was mostly un scathed by Katrina no flooding at allexcept for lower parishes
Ok since 2010 when Treme was filmed that neighbourhood has been priced beyond the reach of musicians etc??
I have a lot of sympathy for the victims of Katrina, I really do. I'm just not sure I'll have as much sympathy if it happens again. The city is a bowl surrounded by water. Moving back is taking quite a chance.
Louisiana has such a unique and beautiful culture compared to the rest of the Deep South. It’s a shame they haven’t gotten the help they deserve
Gentrification is what they did.
Anybody who's from New Orleans KNOW city officials SOLD THE RESIDENTS OUT!!! The ONLY parts of the city not affected is Garden District, Gentilly, and Lakeview!!! Anybody tell you different is a pastor or a 501c3 n_r!!!
7:26 That image shows the St.Bernard housing projects, not B.W. Cooper.
I live here. I still on the 18th anniversary, can’t believe this happened to us. It didn’t happened to him or her. It happened to us as “We Are The Spirit Of New Orleans”. Katrina’s following forced gentrification is ruining our people. New Orleans doesn’t have the means to pay their people because they are too busy allowing their mayor to corrupt the system. Get her out and we would thrive better. We should not still be rebuilding 18 years later. Yet here we are. I personally walked through my GMA’s house in Gentilly… 5524 Wildair. Their house was 4 feet off of the ground already. It had 10 foot ceilings and there was a still-water line in the attic nearly the entirety of the attic. Apparently she had because of sinkage… 20-25 feet of water. The numbers are general and I’m speaking locally.
what's the name of the song @ 6:23 & 9:51
What kind of journalism is this? A few selected interviews spliced together with no reporting, no analysis. Watch Spike Lee's 2 docs on Katrina and its aftermath and you actually learn and see things in context. This is a lazy montage of interviews supposedly representing the state of the various districts. NYT has to do better, I subscribe to them-- but I won't for long if they don't get back into quality reporting and analysis.
It is called creative reporting.
Spike Lee??? hahaha...you mean the guy that claimed the levees were blown up? THAT guy? You mean the guy that almost got an old couple lynched after publicly posting their address cause their name happened to be Zimmerman? Oh yeah he's credible.
Bill Hannaford yea except his documentary when the levees broke is great
watched it.
I was thinking the same thing. It's the typical new American approach to "in-depth journalism"- it isn't journalism, but just snippets of human interest. And that's all that sells now, because people need to be entertained by the news, not informed by it. And so any story that needs telling needs the "hook", and each news outlet focuses on that, because that gets the viewers, the ratings, the clicks and the papers and magazines off the shelves.
But do you know more now? Nah. Just that a drone can make nice shots, but you need background music and not the actual sound recording because it would be an annoying buzzing sound of the drone drowning everything else out. /end rant
This was, in many ways, the “9/11” for African Americans.
The September 11 attacks themselves mostly killed wealthy white office workers in the towers, and in parallel, it was overwhelmingly Black people who lost their lives in Hurricane Katrina. And just as America’s institutionalised racism guaranteed, the federal response to Katrina was far worse than that of 9/11. The victims of the flash floods were falsely portrayed as looters and rioters (when the small amount of looting that was committed was out of sheer desperation for clean water and food), the recovery was far worse and far more unequal, and of course, there’s virtually no recognition of Katrina as being anything more than an “equal opportunities storm”.
Katrina was a *crime.*
I agree! They gave so much money to 9/11 families but didn’t do as much for Katrina residents
@mssha1980 one of them is a natural disaster and one is a terrorist attack. I thought them schools was teaching yall something down there. You chose to live below sea level. You don't deserve free $$ for that. Not to mention new york IS NOT MOSTLY WHITE YALL JUST LOVE TO BLAME WHITE PEOPLE FOR PROBLEMS. There were so many black police officers and firefighters and black folks overall down below them towers. your out of your mind.
New Orleans is becoming little San Francisco
You mean San Fagcisco?
+polifatts tf?
hardly
tswagg504 how? The violence is much worse than san fran.
Wym lol
i rember when I was a newborn comeing back from batton rogue and seeing new orleans and it was devesting
Lies, as a newborn baby you don't really remember anything.
the warehouse district now ☺
OMG IN MY SCHOOL TODAY WE READ ABOUT KATRINA
Truth is not a lot of ppl moved back til mid 2016 and 17
2:06 😆
NOLA has grown SIGNIFICANTLY since katrina, buildings have become better, but 9th ward is not better.. still poorly built houses and some abandoned ones. some owners have custom built their houses again to where they are on stilts. yes the city has let people do that if you live near levee. katrina was bad in BTR, where i live, but not as bad as NOLA. Praying for harvey victims rn, and condolonces go out to lost ones from this terrible act of mother nature..
It's going to get worse. The combination of sea level rise, average temperature rise increasing storm moisture content & surge intensity, & the sink rate of 2 inches per year - fully half the city is now below sea level.
All this about how NOLA changes but didn't cover the changes Central City (outside of CJ Peete), Gert Town or Black Perl? Nor anything on how Katrina & Rita shifted the GNO areas or the surrounding communities and Francophone parishes?
Good, don't get me wrong but narrow in it's scope.
the dynamics of NO really changed. Its a great city and growing but after Katrina the housing prices went up dramatically.
yes they did, but I can afford it and will be moving there soon, prices went up to keep certain people away which is unfair
+Keshia Y How much is the rent now?
+Carrie T it's different depending on where u want to live, you can research different areas
Keshia Y very unfair that residents who lived there all of there life cannot afford it anymore and moved to other cities. I live in California but ive always had a fascination with New Orleans.
Prices went up because so many houses were either newly built or restored like new. Combine that with the housing stock which was never replaced, and you'll have higher prices. It's just economic reality.
Don’t believe everything you hear. I live in Nola and this documentary definitely leans a certain way.
The editing in video is really irritating. It's a documentary not an arthouse movie ffs
I LOVE NEW ORLEANS SUCH A ROMANTIC CITY TO ME THANK U GOD ITS BACK! MY FAVORITE CITY EVER!🍎🍎🍎💋💋💋💋💍💍💍🐝🌹🌹❤❤
New Orleans is not back, any place that is not in the French Quarter or the Garden District is only half rebuilt at best, try looking in New Orleans East and most other parts of the city, it stii has gutted houses from 13 years ago, I know, I live there.
Kenny Whiddon yup
@@kennywhiddon1497 I wonder what the lower ninth looks like, probably overgrown lots everywhere
@@vlz.matthew The same way it has always looked, like a ghetto.
Did the authorities repair the levys?
Linda Goffigan well yes. They repaired those years ago and they say they are "better" (I don't think they are though)
Linda Goffigan levees
Ha the part about the start up. You’re not doing a good thing, you are taking over a city that used to have so much raw history and roots and filling it with the same modern tech companies that are everywhere.
Which parts of the state got hit?
Capitalism written all over it...
Money Math united states of money
Clouds as witnesses
Never recovered...
holla from nola 😛
New Orleans is a doomed city.
No it isn't.
Ryan Magnan no it is NOT
Ryan Magnan we have weathered hurricanes for 302 years, we will survive until the sea levels rise too high. Then and only then will the city be truly doomed
This didn't tell me a thing
I was a lucky one. But so many lost everyone and everything. Not to many people want to live below sea level. And many poor folk ended up there. Get these people into homes.
10:06
5:03 axed us to do!!! haha
And yet they will build and it will happen again
Who’s watching this after waiting for hurricane florence
So, segregation of the poor is bad AND new investment in a poor neighborhood is bad also? You can't win for losing!
Well put 👏👏👏
I was a baby when Katrina came
Ayden Bavaret I was 30 years old
I b living on new Orleans for 15 years ..i know i alot things are diferent .if you see they really want put the people out the city ..so they. Can take the houses and sellen to people out state .. So can make better city
Luis F Amador I g7
I hate to say it, but it sure is true New Orleans has got to be the haunted country to have ever Existed
new orleans isn't a country you fool
The problem is , you just can't rebuild ghettos .
With all of grace. You're great people that have got so power and will to restore your city.
Proud of you. But a one question. I see only black but no white men.
Is it possible for a white family e.g. from Russia to settle among yours?
Or it might be unsuitable unless I will go to the Church and pray for Juises.
summing up my comments, NOLA had an industrial revolution but not every was helped
Does Uptown not exist? It seems that part of the story would have helped make the case the NYT was trying to make. Whatever...much love NOLA
Uptown do exist that project they was talking about that's UPtown
Yeah where did all that money go ?🤔
In Mayor Ray Nagin's pockets.
Kenny Whiddon Whos now in jail
Don't care what shade you are.....I'm black and gold till I'm dead and cold..I love my people from Louisiana and given the opportunity,I'd trade my life for yours....Las se lae bon temps roulier....a white boy 14 year military vet.
o mcallister laissez les bon temps rouler!! I bleed purple and gold on saturdays and black and gold on Sundays
From a strictly practical perspective, what is the probability of building in NO and that building getting flooded again? Throw away the old floodplain maps; look at Houston today and ask yourself, "Can it happen here again in NO? If not, why not? What have they done to protect these homes from a storm like they just had in Houston?"
opadennis.
You mean to tell Me the NYT"S told the truth ?? I'm SHOCKED!!!!
Even though all of the stuff that has happened or is happening in New Orleans, I still love the city. I live an hour away, but I don't get to go a lot. ( I especially love the WW2 Museum.)
It was a nice place, but only a moron would build a city underwater like that.
The Interesting Nobody I mean they didn’t have science back then. They didn’t realize it was below sea level at the time. The city is sinking slowly so yearsssss ago when it was built it was like at the highest level
dreamergirlbaby yup
They are ascribe everything to "they." Who's "they?"
Donald trump is putting alot of money into a wall, he should have rebuild new Orleans and build a evacuation plan for hurricane crisis.
government blew levies during Katerina to clear out minorities in 9th ward to make way for oil companies and big corp. resorts/casinos
lemme guess they also have weather machines to create giant hurricanes as well.
yeah, right. Where is your proof? Lakeview area was equally or more so decimated than Lower 9th and that's where most of the politicians live. You think that really happened the way you are talking. Sheesh. Yeah that really worked huh? Lots of casinos and rich people moved to Lower 9th now huh? There is NOTHING there....zilch.
And where are these resorts and casinos 14 years later?
Lol there are literally zero big resorts and casinos in the 9th ward
The non cripples prosper again .
Our home away from home 🇭🇳 🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳New Orleans catrachos second home
U from TX?
Why you thought it was Armageddon ?
Glad caleo and the ratchet areas getting rebuilt
What happened, after New Orleans, rip messy mya, ( Beyoncé used his voice in formation )
Sippi got hit wayyy worse but they got left in the dark
True! New Orleans always gets the headlines too
The damage was worse in NOLA because the levees broke
Old oileens! 😐
John 3:16 for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him not perish but have everlasting life worth 17 but God sent not his son into the world but that the world through him might be saved Verse 18 He that believeth is not condemned but he that believeth not is condemned already because he has not believe on the name of the only begotten son of God God bless anybody that reads this because God says whosoever will

When is new Orleans' Caucasian, Vietnamese, Latino, Russian, and huge Irish Italian population going to get seen. why is the media interested in making the world think we are a completely low in come African American city.
New Orleans has become a BORING city, far from what culture it use go be.
Nope..New Orleans lost its sing zazz-it's roots. Yuppie, stuffy and a mear pittance of itself.
No it hasn't! It made us stronger and come back more fierce... A storm will not break the people of NO, it will make us stronger and come back singing better than ever...you obviously don't live here... Nor do you have faith in the beautiful culture we have, nothing can break us...
Courtney Tubbs yeah
billy kobilca disagree
katrina one of best things that ever happened to that city. pushed the trash up or down stream and away. far from perfect but much better off.
You're a disgusting human being I hope u family experience something like this so I can say whelp they swept all the trash out
build it pretty, moolies will tear it to pieces!!
NY times always race baiting
That Spanish speaking woman is was urking my nerves .
Why because she's working? Something the majority of your new orleans people we got here in Texas after hurricane Katrina don't do.
Obama sure cares about his people huh.
...this bullllshiiite was under Georgie Porgie Bush....
