NOLA is probably the most important port in the country and critical for oil and gas production and refining as well. It's in this country's interest to rebuild it properly.
The industrial bit will certainly be rebuilt; but, it will be a long time before the broader residential area comes back.

Residential single family homes are usually the first to be rebuilt. Might be a bit different in NO, because about 1/2 the homeowners are not insured. FEMA has a poor track record in rebuilding and getting people out of "Temporary" housing.
