New Orleans' Blessing; New Orleans' Curse

Kelman's analysis might make people think that re-building New Orleans is not a very good idea.

He talks about how bad the location is for a town. Kelman does point out though that the area is good for business. But the overall point of his article is how inconvenient the area is to its surroundings.
