The Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans celebrated the completion of the Aurora Rain Garden with residents in Algiers in April. The rain garden will collect and filter stormwater in order to reduce flooding and mitigate subsidence. The Neighborhood Engagement Office had the privilege to attend the completion ceremony for the Aurora Rain Garden in Algiers. Located at the corner of Westchester Street and Carlisle Court, this exciting project will be a valuable resource for the community.
