I have often noticed the similarities of the two port cities over the years. Yes, the blighted houses in Buffalo resemble the Katrina damaged (and formerly blighted) houses in New Orleans. However, the "graffiti used by FEMA in New Orleans" designated date searched, by whom and number of, if any, dead bodies found in those homes. Of course, that is not to say dead bodies aren't found in the abandoned properties. That data is just not posted on the building. Finally, what I noticed most when I drove through New Orleans after I was allowed to return were the muddy water lines on the buildings. Thank you for helping New Orleans in March, 2006; for reminding people of the continued plight of New Orleans, and for bringing the issue of abandoned properties in Buffalo to the forefront.
