ABSTRACT

Recognizing the importance of rebuilding New Orleans, this paper aims to analyze the rebuilding policies for New Orleans and compare those with an alternative policy which can make the city more sustainable, less vulnerable and more equitable. For this comparison, it analyzes four rebuilding policies as follows: Urban Land Institutes's Policy, the Bring New Orleans Back Commission's Original and Revised Policy, and Policy of Cherokee, IA. It is important that rebuilding New Orleans means not only rebuilding homes but also the lives and futures of people who haslived in the city.
