Unkempt and a bit frayed at the edges New Orleans just woke up with bed head.
This is the kind of place where potholes can swallow a car tire in a single bite and construction projects take decades.

The city’s residents have adapted, basements are practically unheard of and definitely a folly, slab on grade construction begs for slightly damp walls, and there is a festival of some description almost every day.
