Moses had a hand in the early stages of the planning process for what became the Claiborne Avenue Expressway. Curiously, given later developments, Moses did not plan for an elevated highway, arguing that widening the street would have been sufficient.

Sunday, 5 pm at The Orange Couch (2339 Royal): through documents from THNOC's archives, #LettersRead will explore the life and times of #RobertMoses, the infamous NYC power broker and builder who planned #NOLA's Riverfront Expressway. Free admission: https://t.co/gl2VulcxiE.

Unquantifiable, but in recent years, the damage done to multiple generations of New Orleanians has attracted attention at the highest levels of power in an attempt to correct past wrongs.

“I was looking out the window of the St. Bernard Avenue bus on my way to school and I saw a group of these yellow bulldozers."

In March 1922, Florestine Perrault Collins (then Bertrand) paid $1200 for the building at 610 N. Claiborne Avenue. There she established a photography studio where she became a leading image maker for Black Creole society.

[ChristinaProenzaColes @ProenzaColes]

“Florestine Perrault Collins (1895-1988) was one of the first professional African American female photographers in the country. She opened her own portrait studio in New Orleans in 1920s.”
