City on a Plate-New Orleans

Description:
New Orleans - pop. 485,000 (2006); 1.4 million (pre-Katrina) Americas capital of culture devastated by floods during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The massive scale of the flooding is frightfully apparent; the white area on this particular plate represents the parts of the city that were flooded. The Mississippi River curves across the plate in a swath of blue; Audubon Park on the rivers bank and City Park, adjacent to Lake Pontchartrain, are rendered in green.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this plate will go toward the recovery and rebuilding of 1300 acres of City Park that experienced serious damage to grounds, trees, infrastructure and facilities.

These porcelain plates measure 12 across, with each citys downtown core printed on a black background. Key buildings are represented with red icons, while rivers and public spaces are shown in blue and green. Each plate is boxed and includes a key to the buildings and spaces included on the plate.
