New Orleans endures more summer flooding Aug. 5; city officials provide updates on pumps, parking
As rains died down after 9 p.m. Aug. 5, both lanes of Banks Street in Mid-City were covered in several inches of standing water, with cars parked as close to houses and up against buildings and on neutral grounds to avoid creeping floods that submerged dozens of cars in the neighborhood.
A few people with their feet in the water sat in picnic benches outside Finn McCool's Irish Pub.*Around the corner, Twelve Mile Limit only narrowly avoided water coming into the front door despite the bar standing only slightly above street level.?
