Twenty Years After Hurricane Katrina

NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA – MAY 31: The home of musician Antoine "Fats" Domino stands in the Lower 9th Ward neighborhood on May 31, 2025, in New Orleans, Louisiana. During Hurricane Katrina, the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal breached, sending over seven feet of water into the Lower 9th Ward neighborhood. Hurricane Katrina, which made landfall in Louisiana on August 29, 2005, killed at least 1,833 people and is considered one of the costliest natural disasters in U.S. history.
