Frank Gehry and Partners NOLA Duplex
As many of you probably know, Brad Pitt and his organization Making It Right have been working in New Orleans—specifically in the Katrina-ravaged Ninth Ward—since 2007 to rebuild and repopulate NOLA with pre-hurricane residents.
Frank Gehry is just one of the many popular architects that lent their time and incredible ingenuity and passion to this project. The homes that Gehry delivered are absolutely gorgeous, and quite at home in the 9th.
All houses are LEED Platinum certified, and are between $150,000-$200,000, the market rates for the area.
