Drainage systems are regularly overwhelmed by too much runoff, causing flooding

Excessive pumping causes the land to sink by lowering groundwater levels

Critical water assets are wasted, hidden behind walls, buried underground, or pumped out of the city

This area drains through two main pipes under Mirabeau and Owens Blvds, which can be diverted into the site

Retention upstream allows drainage in this area to flow more efficiently to Pump Station #4

Reduced volume at Pump Station #4 benefits the entire Gentilly area

Less water entering the London Avenue Canal at Pump Station #4 makes pumping at Station #3 more effective

Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans

At the core of our project is a three-part collaboration between teachers, design experts and water experts.

- Teachers contribute knowledge of curriculum design and implementation.

- Design professionals and educators contribute knowledge of visual, hands-on, and experiential learning.

- Water experts contribute content expertise in international and local water issues.

During the kick-off workshop, we will begin to learn from each other through discussion, design exercises, and time in the fi eld looking at the water that is all around us.
