The
restoration of JOE W BROWN MEMORIAL PARK
nears completion in
New Orleans East. On
its way to becoming
a 'world class
regional park', the
135 acre spread in
conjunction with the
Audubon Nature
Center, was a
jewel in the
community before
hurricane Katrina
devastated the
facility in
2005. The $26M
transformation is
the product of
FEMA,
corporate
partners
such as Nike,
and community
philanthropic
organizations such
as, The
Brees Dream
Foundation and
the
Sugar Bowl
Foundation.
The park
is
managed
by the
New Orleans Recreation Development Commission. As a planned community, New Orleans East was designed with families and outdoor recreation in mind. As with it's many man-made lakes, parks and playgrounds have been strategically built to be accessible and shared by surrounding neighborhoods.
