Overview
The Housing Authority of New Orleans provides housing opportunities in safe, sustainable, pedestrian-oriented communities. The new mixed-income, mixed-use model adopted by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development offers modernized homes for low-income residents and market rate renters, and also offers home ownership opportunities at selected locations. The new amenities include energy star appliances, community centers and recreational facilities located on site.
