I concur. If it is rebuilt move it north of the Lake on higher ground or something. They are basically starting from scratch anyway.

What about the folks on the North Side of the lake? I guess they could just dump dirt and build it up (similar to the Tokyo airport) expensive though, everything would have to come down.

Most definitely.

wooden a-frame homes and the such sure, but much of it is brick, stone, etc, and will hopefull come out of this like they did any previous hurricane. some stuff torn down, some stays... little to none of what was there when the french first settled is either there now (fire and past hurricanes) before and definitely not now), what is called the "french quarter" was actually built during the era of spanish control...

concrete and brick structures though, as I said, are quite resilient and will probably be repairable...
