We showed up to our site on Allen Street to find a bare foundation and two friendly faces, one of which was a Habitat employee we worked with last year, Mike. We were saddened by the state of the surrounding neighborhood, which sustained surge of fourteen feet during Katrina and had standing water of over four and a half feet for two months after the storm. Here is a day-by-day account of our work.
Day 1, 6:45 am - nothing but a foundation
Day 1, noon - the beginnings of a floor
