LaFitte Mixed-Income Housing
Project Description
Following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, owners viewed the LaFitte neighborhood in New Orleans as a great place to provide mixed-income housing in close proximity to the city’s downtown area. The cultural and historical nature of the area provides a wonderful backdrop for this neighborhood. Accessibility to community services, as well as close walking distance to most neighborhood facilities makes this area very desirable. The plan was to create a combination of owned and rental properties in a variety of layouts and sizes.
