Katrina Satellite View17th St. Levee Breech


The 17th St. Canal goes south from Lake Ponchartrain and separates Orleans Parish from Jefferson Parish. The picture below is looking west. On the other side of the flood wall at the top of the picture is Jefferson Parish. Below the broken flood wall is the Lakeview Neighborhood of New Orleans. I'm guessing they probably didn't want to view the lake this close.
