Description
Hurricane Katrina struck the city of New Orleans in 2005. The levees and flood walls built to protect the city failed. Many neighborhoods flooded, and more than 1,800 people died. Thousands more were left stranded. The New Orleans Levee Failure examines the scope of the disaster, its causes, and how people can keep a similar disaster from happening again.
