New Orleans Architectural History, a survey
*not affiliated with the New Orleans Affordable Homeownership Corporation
This group, however
is represented by those New Orleanians, who have been photographing the city's neighborhoods and historic architecture and housing, since hurricane katrina and the Federal Flood, that has destoyed so much of the city.
This is in many ways, is a reNewed survey of historic New Orleans 19th century vernacular architecture, using the 1979 HDLC survey serving as an outline for types and styles of historic architecture. This survey, completed nearly 30 years ago, was done for the city, and the Historic Districts Landmarks Commission.
Upon completing documentation of historic neighborhoods and architectural resources,the survey provided a basis for recommendations for the city, to establish national and city landmarks, and historic architectural districts.
This present day, on-going photographic documentation of New Orleans,
is a windshield reconnaissance level survey of as many neighborhoods and historic architecture as can be photographed. Some mapping has been done and helps to locate specific photographs.
