Prior to Hurricane Katrina, the Housing Authority of New Orleans (HANO) planned to demolish and redevelop four deteriorated public housing developments: B.W. Cooper, C.J. Peete, St. Bernard, and Lafitte (collectively, "the Big Four"). After the Big Four suffered severe damage from Katrina, HANO proceeded with the plan for eventual demolition.
The lawsuit was dismissed by the district court and the dismissal was affirmed by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.[1]
