DescriptionGentilly 4666 St. Roch New Orleans.jpg |
House on St. Roch Avenue, Gentilly section of New Orleans, after the Hurricane Katrina levee failure disaster. House has since been demolished. Minimal Damage from the Flood, nontheless placed on the Imminent Danger list. The niece of the owner was there today and trying to get the house off the list and empty the contents. There was not one single piece of debris coming out of this house because it recieved virtually no water. The floors are in great shape and with very little effort it could be brought back. Here is Alta's Story Alta Reinhardt Pierce built the house at 4666 St. Roch 76 years ago. This has been her only home until Katrina hit. Alta would not evacuate the city with us and remained through the storm. She sat on her porch and watched the water rise. At the time of the storm Alta was 95 years old. Luckily her neighbor remained during the storm and saw that she was by herself. Karen swam to Alta’s house and waved down a boat. The boat took them to the Louisa Exit where they waited on I-10 for 5 days. I should mention here that Alta suffers from congestive heart failure; it was through the grace of god that she did not perish. They walked from I-10 at Louisa to I-10 and Elysian Fields where they were finally picked up. She was evacuated to Hunstville, Houston where we picked her up and brought her to Geismer, Louisiana where we were staying with some friends. She has since moved into an Independent Living Community.
