The role of environmentalism and sustainability in theredevelopment of post-Katrina New Orleans Nosse-Leirer, Emily Rose Geography Urban Sustainability New Orleans After Hurricane Katrina, neighborhoods in New Orleans were threatened with a building moratorium unless they could prove their “viability”. To do so, it would be necessary for them to attract residents and investments. Two neighborhoods, the Lower Ninth Ward and Broadmoor, formulated their own definitions of sustainability and attempted to use the quality as a marketing strategy. This was very successful for Broadmoor, but not for the Lower Ninth Ward. This paper will examine the reasons for this dichotomy by exploring the nature of sustainability as a development strategy, how sustainability is defined and who it benefits, and the community characteristics needed for it to be effective. Additionally, the thesis will present a review of the literature on urban sustainability and urban growth coalitions. 2014-08-28 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1397137300 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1397137300 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
