Return to the Lower Nine (August 6, 2015)

Lower Ninth Ward resident and community leader Calvin Alexander reminisces about about why he chose to live in Holy Cross, his return to New Orleans after the storm, real estate speculators in his neighborhood, and his public anger with the proposal to turn the Lower Ninth north of Galvez into green space. Also, Kim Ford, Executive Director of the L9 Resilience Festival, shares her memories of returning to the Lower Nine, and progress in redevelopment there.
