HURRICANE KATRINA PHOTOS
(taken one month AFTER August 29, 2005 storm in Biloxi, MS)

Roof, driveway, but no house
Eagle Point was a fashionable neighborhood on the Biloxi Bay but was demolished by 30-foot tidal waves.Two-story houses were reduced to roof and foundation; houses were knocked off their eight-foot pilings.
An upscale neighborhood reduced to rubble

Pilings still stand but no house
Eagle Point was one of the hardest hit areas of the storm,regardless of houses of brick and houses on stilts.
All of the MS Gulf Coast - home of the casinos and seafood industry - suffered a similar fate up to about three miles inland. Two towns - Bay St. Louis and Waveland - disappeared completely.

Truck still submerged a month later

Sign says, "Eagle Point's Yard of the Month"
The floods gutted Eagle Point homes in Biloxi.
By contrast, the church to the right and the photos below in northern Gulfport, about five miles inland, suffered wind and rain damage mainly to the rooves, siding, and trees.
