Christopher Homes Projects
Christopher Homes, also known as Christopher Park Homes, was a public housing project in Algiers, New Orleans, operated by HANO, with 150 townhouse style units which opened in 1966 and 1971.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Christopher Park Homes Projects - New Orleans, Louisiana )〕
==Overview==
It was celebrated as the nation's first rent-to-own public housing project.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Housing Authority of New Orleans wronged Christopher Park residents: An editorial | NOLA.com )〕 By the early 1990s Christopher Homes fell victim to New Orleans's economy crises as crack cocaine devastated New Orleans's Algiers section. The 150 unit complexes became a hot spot for drug activity along with the DeGaulle Manor apartments and the infamous Fischer Projects. In 2003 16-year-old Jasmine Jackson was stabbed to death during a block party in Christopher Homes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New Orleans Struggles With a Homicide Rate That Belies Its Size - New York Times )〕 The death of Jasmine shocked New Orleans residents.
Conditions in Christopher Homes were bad, before and after Hurricane Katrina with dead grass and broken windows. HANO stopped leasing vacant apartments at the complex several years before Katrina, and by 2005 only 80 units were occupied.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Christopher Park housing development to be demolished | NOLA.com )〕 In 2013 HANO demolished Christopher Homes due to high vacancy and crime.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Officials witness demolition of Algiers public housing complex | NOLA.com )〕
