The Pontilly Neighborhood Stormwater Network is now approximately 56 percent complete as Fleming Construction crews work to install a semi-permeable parking surface near SUNO that will enhance the system’s ability to hold and safely disperse excess storm water.
The contractors continue to plant lush, native vegetation in the bioswales on Stephen Girard Street and Mirabeau Avenue that will not only bring a great aesthetic to the community, but also a functional “green” infrastructure component.
The $15M Pontilly Neighborhood Stormwater Network extends from Stephen Girard Avenue to Southern University at New Orleans. A pre-construction community meeting was held in February 2019 at Mary D. Coghill Elementary School.
